now, let's notice those tickmarks on the sides.

the ones at the bottom, those two sides are equal.

the ones at the top-right, those two sides are also equal.

what does all that mean?

it means that, the segment in the triangle, the 2x-3 segment is really the midsegment of the triangle, and therefore, also parallel to the base of 18, and also therefore is half of that length.

\bf \textit{midsegment of a triangle}\\\\ m = \cfrac{b}{2}~~ \begin{cases} b=parallel~side\\ \qquad or~base\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ m=2x-3\\ b=18 \end{cases}\implies 2x-3=\cfrac{18}{2}\implies 2x-3=9 \\\\\\ 2x=12\implies x=\cfrac{12}{2}\implies x=6

A segment has one endpoint at (-4,1) and it's midpoint at (3,0). What is the x-coordinate of the other endpoint?
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

(10; -1)

the x-coordinate of the other endpoint is (x;y)

because the segment has midpoint at (3;0)

=> x - 4 = 3.2 = 6

y + 1 = 0.2 = 0

<=> x = 10

y = -1

=> the other endpoint is (10; -1)

To do this problem, we need one more piece of information. He need to know the percent of the quarters that are from New York.

If you had that number, just multiply it by 300.

For example, if 10% of the coins were from New York, just multiply by 0.1.
0.1 x 300 = 30
