Answer:
Franco has 66 baseball cards.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved by a system of equations.
I am going to say that:
x is the number of baseball cards that Franco has.
y is the number of baseball cards that Juan has.
Franco has 18 fewer baseball cards than Juan.
This means that:
Also:
Together they have 150 baseball cards.
This means that:
Since
Franco has 66 baseball cards.
It is given that two vertices of square are (0,0) and (4,2).
Now the problem is that you haven't given that whether these two vertices are adjacent vertices or opposite vertices of the square.
1. By Supposing that these two are adjacent vertices of Square
The third vertex will be at (-4,2) which lies in third quadrant.
Suppose the coordinate of fourth vertex be (x,y).
Mid point of line joining (4,2) and (-4,2) is{ [4+(-4)]/2,(2+2)/2} is (0,2).
Mid point of line joining (x,y) and (0,0) is (x/2,y/2).
Since diagonals of square bisect each other,
∵ x/2=0
⇒x=0
and
y/2=2
⇒y=4
So, The Coordinate of fourth vertex is (0,4).
Now coming back to second condition if these are two opposite vertex of Square.
Let the third coordinate be (a,b).
Length of diagonal=
Now,let side of Square be A.
Then length of Diagonal of square =√2 A
⇒√2 A=2√5
⇒A =√10
As third vertex is (a,b).
Using distance formula
a² + b²=10 -------------(1)
(a-4)²+ (b-2)²=10 --------------(2)
Solving expression (1) and (2), we get
⇒a²+ b²=(a-4)² +(b-2)²
⇒2a + b =5
⇒b=5-2a
Putting the value of b in (1),we get
⇒a² +(5-2a)²=10
⇒a²+25+4a²-20a =10
⇒5a²-20a+15=0
⇒a² - 4a + 3=0
Splitting the middle term,we get
⇒(a-3)(a-1)=0
⇒a=3 ∧ a=1
we get b=5-2×1=3 and b=5-2×3=5-6=-1
So,the other vertex are (1,3) and(3,-1).
