Answer: -4.25 ≤ x ≤ 6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint of a segment is located at the same distance of each of the endpoints of the segment.

The midpoint is at x = 1.

The length of the segment is 10.5, if we divide it by two we have:

10.5/2 = 5.25

Now, if we want the endpoints to be at the same distance of the midpoint, then the endpoints will be:

Xmax = midpoint + 5.25

Xmin = midpoint - 5.25

Then the extremes are:

Xmax = 1 + 5.25 = 6.25

Xmin = 1 - 5.25 = -4.25

Then this segment can be written as:

Xmin ≤ x ≤ Xmax

-4.25 ≤ x ≤ 6.25

What should be added to both sides of this equation to solve for the variable? r + (-12) = 19
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Then the -12 and +12 will cancel out, so you're left with a clean isolated r on the left:

r -12 +12 = 19 + 12

r = 31

4 1/4 divided by 2/7<br><br> (x+8)-(3x- 5)<br><br> Explain how you got the answer!!!!!
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Turn it to improper fractions.

4 1/4 divided by 2/7

Divide them.

17/4 divided by 2/7

17      2     17 x 7

--- ÷  --- = --------- = 119/8 OR 14 7/8

4       7      4 x 2

-----------------------------------------------------

Distribute to take out the parentheses.

(x + 8) - (-3x - 5)

Combine like terms.

x + 8 + 3x + 5

Answer.

4x + 13

Two horses are ready to return to their barn after a long workout session at the track. the horses are at coordinates H(1,10) an
ss7ja [257]
The given information are the coordinates of points H, Z and B. So, the first step to do is to plot these points on a Cartesian plane as shown in the attached picture. We can deduce visually that horse Z is closer to the barns than horse H. But, to further justify the answer, we have to provide the magnitude of the distance of horses H and Z to barn B. In this approach, we use the distance formula:

d = √(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

Use the coordinates of the two points to know their linear distances. These are represented by the red and green lines for each of the horses.

Distance between H and B = √(⁻3 - 1)² + (⁻9-10)²
Distance between H and B = √(⁻3 - 1)² + (⁻9-10)²
Distance between H and B  = 19.4165

Since the scale is 1 unit = 100 meters, the actual distance between horse H and barn B is 19.416*100 = 1,941.65 meters


Distance between Z and B = √(⁻3 - 10)² + (⁻9-1)²
Distance between Z and B = √(⁻3 - 10)² + (⁻9-1)²
Distance between Z and B  = 16.4012

Since the scale is 1 unit = 100 meters, the actual distance between horse Z and barn B is 16.4012*100 = 1,640.12 meters

Comparing the distances: 1,941.65 meters > 1,640.12 meters. Therefore, it justifies that horse Z is nearer to the barn.

PART A: A landmark on the first map is a triangle with side lengths of 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm. What are the side lengths of the tr
Greeley [361]

Complete Question:

Johnny printed two maps of a walking trail near his home. The length of the walking trail on the first map is 8 cm.

(a) Choose a length between 5 cm and 15 cm for the walking trail on the second map: ________cm.  

(b) Determine the scale factor from the first map to the second map.

(c)  A landmark on the first map is a triangle with side lengths of 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm. What are the side lengths of the triangle landmark on the second map?  

(d) Draw one of the triangles from part C. Label the side lengths and vertices accordingly. You may use this drawing tool or draw your triangle on paper:

Answer:

(a) Length = 4cm

(b) Scale factor = 0.5

(c) 3cm, 4cm and 5cm are represented by 1.5cm, 2cm and 2.5cm respectively, on the second scale

(d) See attachment for triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Choose a length between 5 cm and 15 cm

Length =4cm <em>--- This is solely up to you (you can make use of any length between 5 cm and 15 cm)</em>

(b) The scale factor

The scale factor (k) is calculated as:

k = \frac{New\ Length}{Old\ Length}

k = \frac{4cm}{8cm}\\

k = 0.5

(c) What are side lengths of 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm on the second landmark

Using:

k = \frac{New\ Length}{Old\ Length}

The old lengths, in this case are: 3cm, 4cm and 5cm

Make New length the subject

New\ Length = k * Old\ Length

When Length = 3cm

New\ Length = 0.5 * 3cm = 1.5cm

When Length = 4cm

New\ Length = 0.5 * 4cm = 2cm

When Length = 5cm

New\ Length = 0.5 * 5cm = 2.5cm

So: 3cm, 4cm and 5cm are represented by 1.5cm, 2cm and 2.5cm respectively, on the second scale

(d) See attachment for triangle
