If the endpoints of DE where D(-3, y) and E(x, 6) with the midpoint M(4, 2), the length of DE is 16.12 units
The formula for calculating the midpoint is expressed as;
For the x-coordinate points:
X = -3+x/2
4 * 2 = -3 + x
8 = -3 + x
x = 8 + 3
x = 11
Get the value of y;
2 = y+6/2
y+6 = 2 * 2
y + 6 = 4
y = 4 - 6
y = -2
Hence the coordinates of D and E are D(-3, -2) and E(11, 6)
Hence the length of DE is 16.12 units

Answer: 36 / 2 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Jared needs to drill holes 2 1/4 inches apart in a 36 inch section of his garage. The expression that he can use to figure out the number of holes he will need to drill will be:
= 36 ÷ 2 1/4
From the expression we can then calculate the number of hours to drill. This will be:
= 36 / 2 1/4
= 36 / 9/4
= 36 × 4/9
= 16
He'll need to drill 16 holes

Answer: 1/4 ounces per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
In the 3 hours that the bucket has leaked, it has lost 3/4 ounces.
The rate at which it is leaking is therefore:
= 3/4 / 3
= 3/4 * 1/3
= 3/12
= 1/4 ounces per hour
