<h3>Given</h3>
  • 40% of work week is 16 hours
<h3>Find</h3>
  • hours in work week
<h3>Solution</h3>

Write the given information as an equation.

... 0.40 × (work week) = 16 hours

Divide by the factor you don't want (0.40).

... (work week) = (16/0.40) hours

... work week = 40 hours

_____

40% means 40/100 (forty hundredths) or 0.40 (forty hundredths). (The % symbol is a shorthand way to write /100.)

The midpoint of UV is (5, -10). The coordinates of one endpoint are U(3,6). Find the coordinates of endpoint V.
Grace [21]

The answer is (7, -26) for The second endpoint.  

We'll call the midpoint M. In order to find this, we must first note that to find a midpoint we need to take the average of the endpoints. To do this we add them together and then divide by 2. So, using that, we can write a formula and solve for each part of the k coordinates. We'll start with just x values.

(Ux + Vx)/2 = Mx

(Vx + 3)/2 = 5

Vx + 3 = 10

Vx = 7

And now we do the same thing for y values

(Uy + Vy)/2 = My

(Vy + 6)/2 = -10

Vy + 6 = -20

Vy = -26

This gives us the final point of (7, -26)

If F, G, and H are the midpoints of the sides of triangle JKL , FG = 37, KL = 48, and GH = 30 find each measure
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The measure of JK is 60

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the points F, G, and H are the midpoints of the sides of triangle JKL , FG = 37, KL = 48, and GH = 30.

The point F is midpoint of JK, point G is midpoint of KL and the point H is midpoint of LJ as shown in figure .

According to the midpoint theorem, the line connecting the midpoints of two sides is parallel to the third and its length is half of the third si
