The midpoint of \overline{\text{AB}}

Mathematics
1 answer:
Schach [20]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<em>The coordinates of b are: B=(-7,-8)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the coordinates of the midpoint of \overline{\text{AB}} as M=(-5,-2).

We are also given the coordinates of A=(-3,4). The question requires us to calculate the coordinates of the other endpoint B.

Let (xb,yb) the coordinates of B. The coordinates of the midpoint can be calculated as follows:

\displaystyle x_m=\frac{x_a+x_b}{2}

\displaystyle y_m=\frac{y_a+y_b}{2}

We know xa=-3 and xm=-5. Solve the first equation for xb:

2x_m=x_a+x_b\Rightarrow x_b=2x_m-x_a

Substituting:

x_b=2\cdot (-5)-(-3)=-10+3

x_b=-7

We can solve the second equation for xb and get:

y_b=2y_m-y_a

Since ya=4 and ym=-2, then:

y_b=2\cdot (-2)-(4)=-4-4

y_b=-8

Thus, the coordinates of b are: B=(-7,-8)

5. The width of a row of identical townhouses,
Serjik [45]

Answer:

a. The value of the constant k is 21

b. The equation is y = k * x, where k is the proportionality constant, "x" is the number of terraced houses and "y" is the width of a row of identical houses.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

<em>A proportional relationship satisfies the equation y = k * x, where k is a positive constant and is called a proportionality constant. In this case "x" is the number of terraced houses and "y" is the width of a row of identical houses. </em>

The data you have is that the width of 5 townhouses are 105 feet. This means that the value of "x" is 5 houses and the value of "y" is 105 feet. By replacing in the equation y = k * x and isolating the constant k, you get:

<em>105=k*5 </em>

k=\frac{105}{5}

<em>k=21 </em>

<u><em>So the value of the constant k is 21.</em></u>

b.

<em>As mentioned, the equation is y = k * x, where k is the proportionality constant, "x" is the number of terraced houses and "y" is the width of a row of identical houses.</em>

This means that just as "x" increases, "y" increases. And that if "x" decreases, "y" will decrease. And this relationship between "x" e "and" will always be the same, determined by the value of the constant "k".
