Given that S is the centroid of triangle MNO, find SQ.

Mathematics

AnnZ [28]3 years ago

Answer:

|SQ|=5

Step-by-step explanation:

If S is the median, then OP is a median of triangle OMN.

This implies that:

|MP|=|NP|

3x-4=x+4

We group like terms and solve for x.

3x-x=4+4

\implies 2x=8

\implies x=4

Now we know that: MN:SQ=2:1

But MN=2x+2

This implies that:

2x+2:SQ=2:1

Put x=4

2(4)+2:SQ=2:1

10:SQ=2:1

Therefore |SQ|=5

What is the equation of the line shown in the graph? (-3,1) (2,-4)
ki77a [65]

Answer:

x + y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The two primary equations to remember when dealing with graphing 2-variable equations are: ax + by = c (a & b are the x & y coefficients, respectively), and the other is y = mx + c (m = slope, x & y represent themselves). There is another equation to find the slope. If not already known, it's: ∆y/∆x {∆(aka Delta) = difference}. So, since that's all been established, we can proceed to calculate your question:

1) Find your slope: 1 - (-4) = 5 for your y-variable. And -3 - 2 = -5 for your x-variable. So your slope = 5/-5 = -1

2) Use the y = mx + c equation together with either set of (x,y) coordinates to get the equation 1 = (-1)(-3) + c. Which gives you c = -2

3) So, going back to the main equation to remember, the ax + by = c, use a one of your given sets of x,y coordinates and input your known values for x, y, & c to get: a(-3) + b(1) = (-2) and do the same with other set (these are just double-checks, coefficients are all equal to 1 anyways). So, you should arrive to the equation: x + y = -2
