Answer:

(6,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint formula is $(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )$ . Substitute (2,10) and (10,2) into this formula and simplify.

$(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} ) \\(\frac{2+10}{2},\frac{10+2}{2} ) \\(\frac{12}{2},\frac{12}{2} ) \\(6,6)$

William bought some tickets to see his favorite singer. He bought some adult tickets and some children’s tickets, for a total of

Fantom [35]

Set x as adult tickets.
Set y as children's tickets.
x + y = 15
30x + 20y = 270
Solve for x in the first equation.
x + y = 15
x = 15 - y
Plug this into the second equation.
30x + 20y = 270
30(15 - y) + 20y = 270
450 - 30y + 20y = 270
450 - 10y = 270
-10y = -180
y = 18
If there is 18 childrens tickets, there should be -3 adult tickets.
This is impossible, and this impossible answer occured because the question is written wrong.
There are a total of 15 tickets
The smallest costing ticket is the childrens ticket, which costs 20$.
If he only bought children tickets, this would be 20x15 which is 300$.
300$ is over 270$, which makes the question impossible.

A rock drops from a height of 60m. how long does it take for it to hit the ground?

laila [671]

To solve for the time an object takes to hit the ground, the equation

y = y₀ + v₀t + ½gt², or just 0 = y₀ +½gt² since there is no initial velocity and the final y position is 0 (since it is on the ground). Therefore, t = (−2y₀/g)^½.

(-2*60/-9.8)^½ = 3.50 seconds.

Using this formula l=A 1/2 what is the length of one side of a square with an area of 1,936 square kilometers? (A is the area of

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

c.)44 kilometers

Answer:

Solution given:

let

length =L

and

Area =A

Now

we have

Area [A]=1936 square kilometers

now

As we know that

Area of square :length *length

A=l*l

A=l²

Substituting value of A

1936=l²

doing square root on both side

$\sqrt{1936}=\sqrt{l²}$

we get

l= $\sqrt{2*2*2*2*11*11}$

l=2*2*11

l=44 kilometers

the length of one side of a square is 44 kilometers.
