Answer:

Therefore the coordinate of  P₂ is (-3,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Mid point: The mid-point is a point from where the distance of the end points of a line segment is equal.

The co-ordinate of mid point of (x₁,y₁)  and (x₂,y₂) is (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} ,\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )

Here x₁= -5  and y₁= 9

And the coordinate of the mid point is (-7,1).

Let the coordinate of P₂ be (x,y)

Therefore the coordinate of midpoint of P₁ and P₂ is

(\frac{-7+x}{2} ,\frac{1+y}{2} )

According to the problem,

\frac{-7+x}{2} =-5

\Rightarrow -7 +x=(-5)\times 2

\Rightarrow -7 +x=-10

\Rightarrow x=-10+7

\Rightarrow x= -3    

and          

\frac{1+y}{2} = 1

\Rightarrow 1+y= 1\times 2

\Rightarrow 1+y=2

\Rightarrow y=2-1

\Rightarrow y=1

Therefore the coordinate of  P₂ is (-3,1)

Find the missing side or angle.
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

c = 6.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: B = 18° , C = 152°,  and b = 4.

The missing side, c, can be determined by applying the sine rule which states that:

\frac{b}{Sin B} = \frac{c}{Sin C}

\frac{4}{Sin 18^{o} } = \frac{c}{Sin 152^{o} }

c = \frac{4* Sin 152^{o} }{Sin 18^{o} }

 = \frac{1.8779}{0.3090}

 = 6.0773

c = 6.1

Therefore,  the value of the missing side, c, is 6.1

How to find an equation for a line through two given points?​
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The equation of the line is: y = 0.6x + 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line has the following format:

y = mx + b

In which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Two points:

We have these following two points in this exercise:

x = -6, y = -3, so (-6,-3)

x = 4, y = 3, so (4,3)

Finding the slope:

Given two points, the slope is given by the change in y divided by the change in x.

Change in y: 3 - (-3) = 3 + 3 = 6

Change in x: 4 - (-6) = 4 + 6 = 10

So

m = \frac{6}{10} = 0.6

Then

y = 0.6x + b

Finding b:

We replace one of the points in the equation to find b. I will use (4,3).

y = 0.6x + b

3 = 0.6*4 + b

2.4 + b = 3

b = 0.6

The equation of the line is: y = 0.6x + 0.6
