The midpoint formula is simply
ma = (a1 + a2)/2
mb =(b1 + b2)/2
The midpoint is -1 + i and the other endpoint is -5 - 7i
The other endpoint is
-1 = (-5 + a2)/2
a2 = 3
1 = (-7 + b2)/2
b2 = 9

3 + 9i

Answer:

The other end point is: s+ti = 3+9i

Step-by-step explanation:

Mid-Point(M) in the complex plane states that the midpoint of the line segment joining two complex numbers a+bi and s+ti is the  average of the numbers at the endpoints.

It is given by:    M = \frac{a+s}{2} +(\frac{b+t}{2})i

Given: The midpoint = -1 + i and the segment has an endpoint at -5 - 7i

Find the other endpoints.

Let a + bi = -5 -7i  and let other endpoint s + ti (i represents imaginary )

Here, a = -5 and b = -7 to find s and t.

then;

-1+i = \frac{-5+s}{2} + ( \frac{-7+t}{2})i     [Apply Mid-point formula]

On comparing both sides

we get;

-1 = \frac{-5+s}{2}  and  1 = \frac{-7+t}{2}

To solve for s:

-1 = \frac{-5+s}{2}

or

-2 = -5+s

Add 5 to both side we have;

-2+5 = -5+s+5

Simplify:

3 = s or

s =3

Now, to solve for t;

1 = \frac{-7+t}{2}

2 =-7+t

Add 7 to both sides we get;

2+7 = -7+t+7

Simplify:

9 = t

or

t =9

Therefore, the other end point (s+ti) is, 3+9i

Given: CB bisects
marin [14]

Answer:

Answer to fourth part is :

Angle ABC= Angle DBC

So for fifth part reason answer is ASA congruency.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given that CB bisects angle ABD and angle ACD.

So we have ,

Angle ABC= Angle DBC

Answer to fourth part is :

Angle ABC= Angle DBC

Now here we have two angles and one side equal in two triangles.

So we can say that ASA congruency fits in the best here.

So for fifth part reason answer is ASA congruency.

What is the value of a in the equation 3a + b = 54, when b = 9?
nasty-shy [4]
In order to do this you have to substitute b with 9 and get 3a+9=54, now subtract 9 from both sides to leave a by itself and get 3a=45, now divide 3 in both sides to leave a by itself and get a=15

Hope this helps

A projectile is launched into the air. The function h(t) = –16t2 + 32t + 128 gives the height, h, in feet, of the projectile t s
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

t = 4 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the projectile after it is launched is given by the function :

h(t)=-16t^2+32t+128

t is time in seconds

We need to find after how many seconds will the projectile land back on the ground. When it land, h(t)=0

So,

-16t^2+32t+128=0

The above is a quadratic equation. It can be solved by the formula as follows :

t=\dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

Here, a = -16, b = 32 and c = 128

t=\dfrac{-32\pm \sqrt{(32)^2-4\times (-16)(128)} }{2\times (-16)}\\\\t=\dfrac{-32+ \sqrt{(32)^2-4\times (-16)(128)} }{2\times (-16)}, \dfrac{-32\- \sqrt{(32)^2-4\times (-16)(128)} }{2\times (-16)}\\\\t=-2\ s\ \text{and}\ 4\ s

Neglecting negative value, the projectile will land after 4 seconds.
