8) Find the endpoint Cif M is the midpoint of segment CD and M (2, 4) and D (5,7)

Elenna [48]

Answer:

8. c. (-1, -1)

9. a. (-6, -1)

b. True

Step-by-step Explanation:

8. Given the midpoint M(2, 4), and one endpoint D(5, 7) of segment CD, the coordinate pair of the other endpoint C, can be calculated as follows:

let $D(5, 7) = (x_2, y_2)$

$C(?, ?) = (x_1, y_1)$

$M(2, 4) = (\frac{x_1 + 5}{2}, \frac{y_1 + 7}{2})$

Rewrite the equation to find the coordinates of C

$2 = \frac{x_1 + 5}{2}$ and $4 = \frac{y_1 + 7}{2}$

Solve for each:

$2 = \frac{x_1 + 5}{2}$

$2*2 = \frac{x_1 + 5}{2}*2$

$4 = x_1 + 5$

$4 - 5 = x_1 + 5 - 5$

$-1 = x_1$

$x_1 = -1$

$4 = \frac{y_1 + 7}{2}$

$4*2 = \frac{y_1 + 7}{2}*2$

$8 = y_1 + 7$

$8 - 7 = y_1 + 7 - 7$

$1 = y_1$

$y_1 = 1$

Coordinates of endpoint C is (-1, 1)

9. a.Given segment AB, with midpoint M(-4, -5), and endpoint A(-2, -9), find endpoint B as follows:

let $A(-2, -9) = (x_2, y_2)$

$B(?, ?) = (x_1, y_1)$

$M(-4, -5) = (\frac{x_1 + (-2)}{2}, \frac{y_1 + (-9)}{2})$

$-4 = \frac{x_1 - 2}{2}$ and $-5 = \frac{y_1 - 9}{2}$

Solve for each:

$-4 = \frac{x_1 - 2}{2}$

$-4*2 = \frac{x_1 - 2}{2}*2$

$-8 = x_1 - 2$

$-8 + 2 = x_1 - 2 + 2$

$-6 = x_1$

$x_1 = -6$

$-5 = \frac{y_1 - 9}{2}$

$-5*2 = \frac{y_1 - 9}{2}*2$

$-10 = y_1 - 9$

$-10 + 9 = y_1 - 9 + 9$

$-1 = y_1$

$y_1 = -1$

Coordinates of endpoint B is (-6, -1)

b. The midpoint of a segment, is the middle of the segment. It divides the segment into two equal parts. The answer is TRUE.

Given that f(x) = 13x2 + 156, find x. A) x = ±2i 3 B) x = ±2i 6 C) x = ±3i 5 D) x = ±3i 6

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

A) x = ±2i√3

Step-by-step explanation:

We presume you want to find x such that f(x) = 0.

Divide by 13:

x² + 12 = 0

Subtract 12:

x² = -12

Take the square root:

x = ±i√12 = ±2i√3

PLZ HELP HIVE BRAINLYWho got the better deal in the Columbian Exchange: the Europeans or the Native Americans? Why?

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

the Europeans got the better deal from the Colombian Exchange

Step-by-step explanation:

In general, one would have to say that the Europeans got the better deal from the Columbian Exchange in that it facilitated the eventual establishment of colonies in the New World. That's not to say that it was all one-way traffic; however, the people of the New World undoubtedly benefitted in both the short and long-term by the introduction of crops and livestock. But such benefits proved to be more keenly felt by subsequent waves of European settlers than America's indigenous population.

After all, it wasn't much good for Native-Americans to have all these crops and all this livestock if, in due course, there'd be less land available for their use due to increased colonization. The indigenous peoples also suffered terribly from the introduction of diseases such as measles and smallpox, for which they had no natural immunity. It's difficult, then, to avoid the conclusion that the Europeans got the better deal from the Columbian Exchange (as it was probably intended that they should).

simply -

The Natives did benefit, but only for a short while, and the Europeans benefited the most
