The midpoint is (\frac{1}{2}, \frac{13}{2})

The distance between points S and T is 7.1 units

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given points are S(−2, 4) and T(3, 9)

<em><u>Find the coordinates of the midpoint of ST</u></em>

The midpoint is given as:

m(x, y)=\left(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}\right)

Here in this sum,

(x_1, y_1) = (-2, 4)\\\\(x_2, y_2) = (3, 9)

Substituting the values, we get

m(x, y)=\left(\frac{-2+3}{2}, \frac{4+9}{2}\right)\\\\m(x, y)=\left(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{13}{2})

Thus the midpoint is (\frac{1}{2}, \frac{13}{2})

<em><u>Find the distance between points</u></em>

The distance is given by formula:

d=\sqrt{\left(x_{2}-x_{1}\right)^{2}+\left(y_{2}-y_{1}\right)^{2}}

Here in this sum,

(x_1, y_1) = (-2, 4)\\\\(x_2, y_2) = (3, 9)

Substituting the values, we get

\begin{aligned}&d=\sqrt{(3-(-2))^{2}+(9-4)^{2}}\\\\&d=\sqrt{5^{2}+5^{2}}\\\\&d=\sqrt{25+25}\\\\&d=\sqrt{50}=7.071 \approx 7.1\end{aligned}

Thus the distance between points S and T is 7.1 units

Answer: The answer would be B

<u>Write out the equation in slope-intercept form: </u>

y=-5/3x+6 (Once we know that, it'll be easier to convert it into standard form.)

<u>Subtract -5/3 from both sides of the equation:</u>

y+5/3x=6

<u>Subtract 6 from both sides:</u>

y+5/3x-6=0

<u>Multiply both sides by 3 to get rid of the fraction:</u>

3y+5x-18=0

<u>Then arrange the numbers to x and y are on one side by itself:</u>

3y+5x=18

<em>And that's your answer!</em>

The result of taking 3 from x and multiplying the answer by 4 is the same qs taking 3 from 5 times x
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

I think it is this:

4(x-3) = x(5-3)

4x-12 = 5x-3x

2x = 12

x = 6

Find the value of x. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
leva [86]

Answer:

Pythagorean Theorem:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

6^2 + b^2 = 12^2

36 + b^2 = 144

b^2 = 108

b = 10.4

Let me know if this helps!

Write a number or expression in each blank space to create true equations.
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

7(3+5)=7(3)+7(5)\\15-10=5(3-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Both expressions are examples of the <em>distributive property</em>, which basically says "if I have <em>this </em>many groups of some size and <em>that</em> many groups of the same size, I've got <em>this </em>+ <em>that</em> groups of that size altogether."

To give an example, if I've got <em>3 groups of 5 </em>and <em>2 groups of 5</em>, I've got 3 + 2 = <em>5 groups of 5 </em>in total. I've attached a visual from Math with Bad Drawings to illustrate this idea.

Mathematically, we'd capture that last example with the equation

5(3)+5(2)=5(3+2). We can also read that in reverse: 3 + 2 groups of 5 is the same as adding together 3 groups of 5 and 2 groups of 5; both directions get us 8 groups of 5. We can use this fact to rewrite the first expression like this: 7(3+5)=7(3)+7(5).

This idea extends to subtraction too: If we have 3 groups of 4 and we take away 1 group of 4, we'd expect to be left with 3 - 1 = 2 groups of 4, or in symbols: 4(3)-4(1)=4(3-1)=4(2). When we start with two numbers like 15 and 10, our first question should be if we can split them up into groups of the same size. Obviously, you could make 15 groups of 1 and 10 groups of 1, but 15 is also the same as <em>3 groups of 5</em> and 10 is the same as <em>2 groups of 5</em>. Using the distributive property, we could write this as 15-10=3(5)-2(5)=5(3-2), so we can say that 15-10=5(3-2).
