Answer:

(-3/4, 4)

Step-by-step explaination:

add 2 and -5 then divide them by two and get

-1/2

then add 3 and 5 divide them by two and get

11/2

But as long as you remember that you're averaging the two points' x- and y-values, you'll do fine. It won't matter which point you pick to be the "first" point you plug in. Just make sure that you're adding an x to an x, and a y to a y.

so therefore the answer is (-3/4, 4)

a triangle has sides with lengths of 33 centimeters, 75 centimeters, 89 centimeters. is it a right triangle?

bekas [8.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

By pythagoras triplet

sum of square of bigger side should be equal to sum of square of remaining two sides

so 75² + 33² = 5625 + 1089 = 6714

and 89² = 7921

here 6714 is not equal to 7921

so this triangle is not right angled triangle

<h3>What are exponential functions?</h3>

When the expression of function is such that it involves the input to be present as exponent (power) of some constant, then such function is called exponential function.

here usual form is specified below. They are written in several such equivalent forms.

The equation of the function is given as:

$f(x)=3(2)^x -4$
