Answer:

P(x) = x + 2

Piden: A = P(P(P(P(3))))

P(3); x = 3

P(3) = 3 + 2 = 5

A = P(P(P(P(3))))

A = P(P(P(5)))

P(5); x = 5

P(5) = 5 + 2 = 7

A = P(P(P(5)))

A = P(P(7))

P(7); x = 7

P(7) = 7 + 2 = 9

A = P(P(7))

A = P(9)

P(9); x = 9

P(9) = 9 + 2 = 11

→ A = P(P(P(P(3)))) = 11

Given ΔABC with A(–4, –2), B(4, 4), and C(18, –8), write the equation for the line containing median segment The term is line se

Monica [59]

Here we want to find the equation of the line containing the median CP.

P, being the midpoint of AB can be found using the midpoint formula as:

$\displaystyle{ P=( \frac{-4+4}{2} , \frac{-2+4}{2} )=(0, 1)$ .

The slope m of the line through CP can be found by the slope formula using points C(18, -8) and P(0, 1):

$\displaystyle{ m= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}= \frac{-8-1}{18-0}= \frac{-9}{18}= \frac{-1}{2}$ .

Now, we can write the equation of the line with slope -1/2, passing through
P(0, 1):

$y-1= \frac{-1}{2}(x-0)\\\\y= -\frac{1}{2}x+1$ .

Answer: $y=-\frac{1}{2}x+1$
