In order to find the second endpoint or a line segment given the first and the midpoint, you need to realize that the midpoint is an average of the two endpoints. Given that fact, we can derive this formula looking at x values of points A and B with midpoint M. Remember this is only looking at the x values.
(A + B)/2 = M
So if we are looking for A, we can solve for A and use this modified formula.
(A + B)/2 = M
A + B = 2M
A = 2M - B
Now we can do this with the y values of these points as well. We then have the coordinates of both parts of A.
Data:
x: number of months
y: tree's height
Tipical grow: 0.22
Fifteen months into the observation, the tree was 20.5 feet tall: x=15 y=20.5ft (15,20.5)
In this case the slope (m) or rate of change is the tipical grow.
m=0.22
To find the line's slope-intercep equation you use the slope (m) and the given values of x and y (15 , 20.5) in the next formula to find the y-intercept (b):
Use the slope(m) and y-intercept (b) to write the equation:
A) This line's slope-intercept equation is: y=0.22x+17.2
B) To find the height of the tree after 29 months you substitute in the equation the x for 29 and evaluate to find the y:
Then, after 29 months the tree would be 23.58 feet in height
C) In this case as you have the height and need to find the number of moths you substitute the y for 29.96feet and solve the equation for x, as follow:
Then, after 58 months the tree would be 29.96feet tall
Answer:
26
Step-by-step explanation:
both bottoms corners are equal lengths so the other length has to be 26 since the other length is 26.
Answer by JKismyhusbandbae: add 5 to 23
Explanation: The numbers are increasing by 5 each term. To double check 13 - 8 equals 5. To make sure it's right add 13 + 5 equals 18 and so you can add 23 plus 5 equals 28. Which means that five is our pattern.
