The answer is: "1" . ________________________________ Explanation: ________________________ To start, we find this coordinates of this "point that splits the segment in half", known as the "half-point"; or, even more formally, known as the "midpoint", using the following "midpoint formula"; in which "M" refers to the "midpoint": ____________________________________ Given two coordinates (points) on a (straight line segment): ______________________________ (x₁, y₁) ; AND: (x₂ ,y₂ ) ;
The midpoint , "M": ___________________________________ M = (x₁ + x₂) / 2 , (y₁ + y₂) / 2 ; ____________________________________
in which: " (x₁ + x₂) / 2 " ; refers to the "x-coordinate" of the midpoint;
AND: "(y₁ + y ₂) / 2 " ; refers to the "y-coordinate" of the midpoint; _______________________________________________________ If given two particular points, use can use point to start with, as long os the second one is used for the next one: ___________________________________________________ So, given: Point A: (4,3) ; 4 = x₁ ; 3 = y₁ ; Pont B: (-2,6) -2 = x₂ ; 6 = y₂ ; ___________________________________________________ The midpoint , "M": ___________________________________ M = (x₁ + x₂) / 2 , (y₁ + y₂) / 2 = ? Substitute the values: _______________________________________________ M = [4 +(-2)] / 2 , (3 + 6) / 2 ;
→ [(4 <span>− 2) / 2 ] , [(3+6) / 2 ] ;
</span>→ (2/2), (9/2) ;
→ (1, 4.5) __________________________________ The midpoint is: (1, 4.5). This very question asks to find the "x-value" of the midpoint, which is "1" . (Since: x =1, y = 4.5). ________________________________________ So, the answer is: "1" . __________________________________________________
Oct 2, 2019 - However the moon is already increasing the size of its orbit around the earth and would continue to do so with a smaller earth just not quite as quickly. This is all assuming the object replacing the earth is still made out of the same stuff such as rock, metal and water.
The phenomenon wherein the leaves of the plants turn red and fall during the autumn season followed by the defoliation of trees is a concrete example of dormancy. Dormancy refers to the time wherein plants don't grow and wait for necessary environmental factors like moisture, temperature and others.
