The midpoint of these two points is (-1, 8).

In order to find the midpoint, you must take the average of each part of the coordinates. You do this by adding them together and dividing by 2. We'll start with the x-coordinates.

(-1 + -1)/2 = -1

Now we'll use the y-coordinates.

(10 + 6)/2 = 8

This gives us the ordered pair of (-1, 8)

Leyla drops a penny from a height of 150 m. How long will it take the penny to hit the ground? Use the formula h(t)=−4.9t^2+vt+h

torisob [31]

To determine the time it takes for the penny to reach the ground, we use the relation of height and time given above. We do as follows:
<span>
0 =−4.9t^2+(0)t+150
t = sqrt( 150/4.9)
t = 5.53 s

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

Bath and 1 yard of ribbon. She is 1/2 yard for project. She wants to divide the rest of the ribbon into pieces 1/4 yards long. H

ikadub [295]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total length of ribbon = 1 yard

Length of ribbon used for project = $\frac{1}{2}$ yard

Length of ribbon the rest of ribbon is to be divided = $\frac{1}{4}$ yard

To find:

The number of ribbons of length $\frac{1}{4}$ yard that can be made = ?

Solution:

Length of ribbon left after the 1 yard ribbon is used for project can be calculated by subtracting the length of ribbon used from the initial length of ribbon.

i.e.

Length of ribbon left = $1-\frac{1}{2} =\frac{1}{2}$ yard

Now, number of ribbon of length $\frac{1}{4}$ yard can be found be dividing the length of ribbon left with the length of ribbon pieces to be cut.

i.e.

Number of ribbons:

$\dfrac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{4}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}\times 4 = 2$
