Answer:

$(10,-7)$

Step-by-step explanation:

If two points are given as $(x_{1},y_{1})$ (point 1) and $(x_{2},y_{2})$ (point 2), then the midpoint of these 2 points are given by the formula:

Midpoint = $(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2},\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2})$

Using R as point 1 , S as point 2, and T as midpoint, we can substitute in the formula and get 2 equations shown below:

$4=\frac{-2+x_{2}}{2}$ * This is equation 1 from which we can find $x_{2}$

$-2=\frac{3+y_{2}}{2}$ * This is equation 2 from which we can find $y_{2}$

Solving equation 1:

$4=\frac{-2+x_{2}}{2}\\8=-2+x_{2}\\8+2=x_{2}\\x_{2}=10$

Solving equation 2:

$-2=\frac{3+y_{2}}{2}\\-4=3+y_{2}\\-4-3=y_{2}\\y_{2}=-7$

Hence the coordinates of point S is $(10,-7)$

What are the focus and directrix of the parabola that is the graph of the function f(x)=x²?

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$y=x^2$

comparing it with standard equation $x^2=4ay$

so 4a=1

$a=\frac{1}{4}$

so Focus of parabola is (0,0)

directrix

y=-a

here $a=\frac{1}{4}$

$y=-\frac{1}{4}$

The world’s largest round pizza was set in December 2012 by five Italian chefs. The diameter of this pizza was 131 feet. If this

Tems11 [23]

First find the area of the whole pizza.

The formula for area of a circle is Area = PI x r^2

The diameter is given as 131 feet, so r would be 131/2 = 65.5 feet.

I will use 3.14 for PI since the problem doesn't say what value to use.

Area = PI x 65.5^2

Area = 3.14 x 4290.25

Area = 13,471.39 square feet

Divide the total area by the number of pieces:

13,471.39 / 50 = 269.43 square feet

To find the length of the crust first find the circumference of the whole pizza:

Circumference = PI x diameter

Circumference = 3.14 x 131 = 411.34 feet

Now divide the total by the number of pieces:

411.34 / 50 = 8.23 feet

Each slice has an area of about 269.43 square feet and a crust length of 8.23 feet.

What is the length of PQ¯¯¯¯¯?

timofeeve [1]

Since you don't have any angle and its opposite side, you cannot establish the ratio for the law of sines, so you must use the law of cosines.

$c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ac \cos C$

Let's change it for this problem.

$r^2 = p^2 + q^2 - 2pq \cos R$

$r^2 = 9^2 + 6^2 - 2(9)(6) \cos 34^\circ$

$r^2 = 9^2 + 6^2 - 2(9)(6) \cos 34^\circ$

$r^2 = 27.46$

$r = 5.24$

$PQ = 5.2~km$
