Answer: -6

Step-by-step explanation: -|b-a|

-|-2-4|

-|-6|

-6

Once you get rid of the absolute value bars the negative sign is still outside of them making 6 negative again. Hope this helped! :P

If f'(x)=2/x and f(sqrt(e))=5, then f(e)=

docker41 [41]

$f'(x)=\dfrac2x$
$\implies f(x)=\displaystyle\frac2x\,\mathrm dx=2\ln|x|+C$

$f(\sqrt e)=5\implies 5=2\ln|\sqrt e|+C$
$\implies 5=\dfrac22\ln e+C$
$\implies C=4$
$\implies f(x)=2\ln|x|+4$
$\implies f(e)=2\ln|e|+4=6$

Find the midpoint of the line segment whose endpoints are (2.6,5.1) and (3,4.7).

svp [43]

Answer:

Mid point is: (2.8;4.9)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find midpoint of a line segment we can use the general equation:

$Mid=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} ;\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}$

Where the point of the line are: (x₁;y₁) and (x₂;y₂).

In the problem, x₁ = 2.6, y₁ = 5.1 and x₂ = 3 and y₂ = 4.7. Replacing in the equation:

$Mid=\frac{2.6+3}{2} ;\frac{5.1+4.7}{2}$

<h3>Mid point is: (2.8;4.9)</h3>
