Answer:
The other midpoint is located at coordinates (-9,-2) (Second option)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Midpoints</u>
If P(a,b) and Q(c,d) are points in
, the midpoint between them is the point exactly in the center of the line that joins P and Q. Its coordinates are given by


We are given one endpoint at P(1,-2) and the midpoint at M(-4,-2). The other endpoint must be at an equal distance from the midpoint as it is from P. We can see both given points have the same value of y=-2. This simplifies the calculations because we only need to deal with the x-coordinate.
The x-distance from P to M is 1-(-4)=5 units. This means the other endpoint must be 5 units to the left of M:
x (other endpoint)= - 4 - 5 = - 9
So the other midpoint is located at (-9,-2) (Second option)
Answer:
6 miles north and 3 miles west
Step-by-step explanation:
If you picture these miles on a graph, you start at (0,0). Then you go 8 miles south (0, -8). Then 3 miles east (3, -8). Finally, 2 miles north (3, -6). You are 3 miles east and 6 miles south, so you go the opposite directions.
Answer:
a. 144 ft
b. 5 s
Step-by-step explanation:
h = -16t² + 64t + 80
a. This is a parabola, so the maximum height is at the vertex.
t = -64 / (2 × -16)
t = 2
h = -16(2)² + 64(2) + 80
h = 144
The apple reaches a maximum height of 144 ft.
b. 0 = -16t² + 64t + 80
0 = t² − 4t − 5
0 = (t + 1) (t − 5)
t = -1 or 5
t must be positive, so it takes 5 seconds to reach the ground.
