Answer:

<em>The required points of the given line segment  are ( - 1, - 5 ).</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the line segment AB whose midpoint M is ( 3, -2 ) and point A is ( 7, - 9), then we have to find point B of the line segment AB -

As we know that-

If a line segment AB is with endpoints ( x_{1}, y_{1} ) and  ( x_{2}, y_{2}  )then the mid points M are-  

<em>M = ( \frac{ x_{1} + x_{2} }{2} , \frac{ y_{1} + y_{2}  }{2}  )</em>

Here,

<em>Let A ( 7, - 9 ), B ( x, y ) with midpoint M ( 3, - 2 ) -</em>

then by the midpoint formula M are-

<em>( 3, - 2 )  = ( \frac{ 7 + x}{2} , \frac{ - 9 + y}{2} )</em>

On comparing x coordinate and y coordinate -

We get,

<em>( \frac{ 7 + x}{2} = 3  , \frac{ - 9 + y}{2}  = - 2)</em>

<em>( 7 + x = 6, - 9 + y = - 4 )</em>

<em>( x = 6 - 7, y = - 4 + 9 )</em>

<em>( x = - 1, y = -5 )</em>

<em>Hence the required points  A are ( - 1, - 5 ).</em>

<em>We can also verify by putting these points into Midpoint formula.</em>

Sandra has ribbons that are 2/6 meter 3/4meter and 4/9 meter long .She needs to use the ribbon longer than 2/3meter to make a bo
timurjin [86]

Answer:

3/4 meter

Step-by-step explanation:

Need Common denominators to compare size

2/6  3/4  4/9     which is longer than 2/3?

2/6 compared to 2/3.  2/6 = 2/6 and 2/3 = 4/6.  

2/6 < 2/3 so 2/6 is too short

3/4 compared to 2/3   3/4 = 9/12  and 2/3 =  8/12

3/4 > 2/3 so 3/4 is longer than 2/3

4/9 compared to 2/3  4/9 = 4/9 and 2/3 = 6/9

4/9 < 2/3 so 4/9 is too short

With a headwind a plane traveled 128 km in 2h. The return trip with a tail wind took 24 min less. Find the air speed of the plan
sertanlavr [38]

Based on the information given, it can be noted that the air speed that the plane has will be 71.1 km per hour.

The number of hours used for the return trip will be:

= 2 hours - 24 minutes.

= 1 hour 36 minutes.

= 1.6 hours.

Therefore, the speed of the air plane will be:

= (128 + 128) / (2 + 1.6)

= 256/3.6.

= 71.1 km per hour.

Find the derivative of f(x) = 2x^2 - 4x +3
ivolga24 [154]

Explanation

2x^2-4x+3

When taking derivatives of polynomials, we primarily make use of the power rule.

Power rule.

\begin{gathered} f(x)=x^n \\ \text{then} \\ f^{\prime}(x)=nx^{n-1} \end{gathered}

also, the derivate of a sum is the sum of the derivates

hence

\begin{gathered} g(x)=f(x)+h(x)+\ldots z(x) \\ g^{\prime}(x)=f^{\prime}(x)+h^{\prime}(x)+\ldots.z^{\prime}(x) \end{gathered}

Step 1

apply:

\begin{gathered} f(x)=2x^2-4x+3 \\ f^{\prime}(x)=2\cdot2x^{2-1}-4(1)x^{1-1}+ \\ f^{\prime}(x)=4x^{}-4(1)x^0+3^0 \\ f^{\prime}(x)=4x^{}-4(1)(1) \\ f^{\prime}(x)=4z-4 \end{gathered}

therefore, the answer is
