Answer: (-6, 5)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Use the Midpoint Formula: \dfrac{(x_k, y_k)+(x_L,y_L)}{2}=(x_m, y_m)

Separate the x's and y's and solve them individually:

\dfrac{x_k+x_L}{2}=x_m\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad\dfrac{y_k+y_L}{2}=y_m\\\\\\\dfrac{x_k+8}{2}=1\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \dfrac{y_k-7}{2}=-1\\\\\\x_k+8=2\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad y_k-7=-2\\\\\\x_k\quad =-6 \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad y_k\qquad =5

            So, the k-coordinate is (-6, 5)

The sides of a rectangle are in the ratio of 4:5. If the width is 28 in., find the length, the perimeter, and the area of this r
nadezda [96]
If the width is 28 inches, then divide that by 4 and you get 7. You multiply that by 5 to get the length. That would be 35. Just to check, you know that the width 28 and length 35 are in ratio 4:5 if you divide by 7. The perimeter would be 2(35+28)=63*2=126. So the perimeter is 126. The area would be 35*28 which is 980. To sum up, the answers are as follows.

Length: 35 in
Perimeter: 126 in
Area: 980 inches squared.

Kiera is in her last year of college at the University of Houston. She has a scholarship that pays 75% of her costs. Her classes
sergiy2304 [10]
If the scholarship pays 75% of her classes cost, that means that she has to pay the 25% remaining of the classes cost so if we calculate it as follow:

0.25 * $14,000 = $3,500 
 =================================================================
Another method to understand:
if the scolarship pays 75% of her classes that will be 
0.75* $14,000 = $10,500

now she has to pay the remaining of the total cost and that will be 
$14,000 - $10,500 = $3,500.
