How to find the midpoint of a line segment with 2 given point?

1 answer:

7 0

If the 2 given points are endpoints, then we're in business. The formula for the midpoint is $M=( \frac{ x_{1}+ x_{2} }{2}, \frac{ y_{1} + y_{2} }{2})$ . If the endpoints of our segment are the coordinates (1,2) and (12,14), our formula would be filled in as follows: $M=( \frac{1+12}{2}, \frac{2+14}{2})$ which simplifies to (13/2, 8). See? It's pretty simple once you know how to do it.

A: Speed is Independent as it can be anything with no restrictions. Gas mileage is dependent as it relies on the value of speed for its value to be decided.

B: The first letter of speed is "S" so it can represent the variable. The first letter of mileage is "M" so the variable can be represented by that letter. It really can be any letter.

C: no context

alexgriva [62]

Domain means the values of independent variable(input) which will give defined output to the function.

Given:

The height h of a projectile is a function of the time t it is in the air. The height in feet for t seconds is given by the function

$h(t)=-16t^2 + 96t$

Solution:

To get defined output, the height h(t) need to be greater than or equal to zero. We need to set up an inequality and solve it to find the domain values.

$To \; find \; domain:\\\\h(t) \geq0\\\\-16t^2+96t \geq 0\\Factoring \; -16t \; in \; the \; left \; side \; of \; the \; inequality\\\\-16t(t-6) \geq 0\\Step \; 1: Find \; Boundary \; Points \; by \; setting \; up \; above \; inequality \; to \; zero.\\\\t(t-6)=0\\Use \; zero \; factor \; property \; to \; solve\\\\t=0 \; (or) \; t = 6\\\\Step \; 2: \; List \; the \; possible \; solution \; interval \; using \; boundary \; points\\(- \infty,0], \; [0, 6], \& [6, \infty)$

$Step \; 3:Pick \; test \; point \; from \; each \; interval \; to \; check \; whether \\\; makes \; the \; inequality \; TRUE \; or \; FALSE\\\\When \; t = -1\\-16(-1)(-1-6) \geq 0\\-112 \geq 0 \; FALSE\\(-\infty, 0] \; is \; not \; solution\\Also \; Logically \; time \; t \; cannot \; be \; negative\\\\When \; t = 1\\-16(1)(1-6) \geq 0\\80 \geq 0 \; TRUE\\ \; [0, 6] \; is \; a \; solution\\\\When \; t = 7\\-16(7)(7-6) \geq 0\\-112 \geq 0 \; FALSE\\ \; [6, -\infty) \; is \; not \; solution$
