Answer;

1.6

Explanation

What we shall do here is to calculate the distance between the two points on the number line

Mathematically, that would be ;

-2.8 -(-7.2) = -2.8 + 7.2 = 4.4

This means that -7.2 is 4.4 units away from -2.8

So to find other number which is this same distance;

we have -2.8 + 4.4 = 1.6

What are the coordinates of the endpoints of the midsegment for △JKL that is parallel to KL⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯? Enter your answers in the boxe

algol [13]

The points you are looking for are the midpoints of segments JL and JK.
J(-2, -1), K(4, -5), L(0, -5)

The midpoint of segment JL is

(-2 + 0)/2, (-1 + (-5))/2) = (-2/2, -6/2) = (-1, -3)

The midpoint of segment JK is

(-2 + 4)/2, (-1 + (-5))/2) = (2/2, -6/2) = (1, -3)

Answer: The coordinates are (-1, -3), (1, -3)

Which of the following are identities? Check all that apply

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

A, C

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually, those questions require us to develop those equations to derive into trigonometrical equations so that we can unveil them or not. Doing it only two alternatives, the other ones will not result in Trigonometrical Identities.

Examining

A) True

$\frac{1-tan^{2}x}{2tanx} =\frac{1}{tan2x} \\ \frac{1-tan^{2}x}{2tanx} =\frac{1}{\frac{2tanx}{1-tan^{2}x}}\\ tan2x=\frac{1-tan^{2}x}{2tanx}$

Double angle $tan2\alpha =\frac{1 -tan^{2}\alpha }{2tan\alpha}$

B) False,

No further development towards a Trig Identity

C) True

Double Angle Sine Formula $sin2\alpha =2sin\alpha *cos\alpha$

$sin(8x)=2sin(4x)cos(4x)\\2sin(4x)cos(4x)=2sin(4x)cos(4x)$

D) False No further development towards a Trig Identity

$[sin(x)-cos(x)]^{2} =1+sin(2x)\\ sin^{2} (x)-2sin(x)cos(x)+cos^{2}x=1+2sinxcosx\\ \\sin^{2} (x)+cos^{2}x=1+4sin(x)cos(x)$

lys-0071 [83]

34 = -2t....divide both sides by -2
(-34/2) = (-2/-2)t
- 17 = 1t, or just t

so ur answer is : t = -17

What is the solution to the equation below?

hram777 [196]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{A)\ x=-4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{x}{4}=\dfrac{x+1}{3}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\3x=4(x+1)\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\3x=4x+4\qquad\text{subtract}\ 4x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\-x=4\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\x=-4$
