Answer:
x=3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
subract 5 on the other side, than divide by 2
A point that bisects a segment would be its midpoint. This is a case where the vocabulary (bisect as opposed to midpoint) makes it harder.
To find the midpoint, we use the midpoint formula. The midpoint formula is:
midpoint = (x₁ + x₂/2, y₁ + y/2). To find it, you add the x coordinates and then divide them by 2. Repeat for the y coordinates.
x: (-2 + 6)/2 = 4/2 = 2
y: (5 +1)/2 = 6/2 = 3
Thus the point B bisecting AC is at (2, 3).
N =9/8
n = 1 1/8
Hope this helpsb☺
Being that the system is quadratic—with parabola opening downwards—you’re going to need to find the vertex. You can find the x coordinate of the vertex with -b/2a . Then plug in for x to find the y coordinate…
