Without graphing is the system independent, dependent, or inconsistent?

1 answer:

3 0

Y = -2 x - 9
3 x - 4(-2 x - 9 ) = -8
3 x + 8 x + 36 = - 8
11 x = - 44, x = - 4
y = 8 - 9 , y = -1
This is a unique solution, the system is independent.

What is the other endpoint if one endpoint is (10,12) and the midpoint is (6,9).?

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

$(2,\, 6)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $(x_{0},\, y_{0})$ and $(x_{1},\, y_{1})$ denote the two endpoints.

The formula for the midpoint of these two points would be:

$\displaystyle \left(\frac{x_{0} + x_{1}}{2},\, \frac{y_{0} + y_{1}}{2}\right)$ .

(Similar to taking the average of each coordinate.)

In this question, it is given that $x_{0} = 10$ whereas $y_{0} = 12$ . Substitute these two values into the expression for the coordinate of the midpoint:
