Answer:
- D(5, 4), E(14, 7), M(9.5, 5.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
As AD = 1/4AB and DE ║ AC, the ratio CE/CB = 1/4, or CE = 1/4CB
<u>Find the coordinates of D:</u>
- x = 1 + 1/4(17 - 1) = 1 + 4 = 5
- y = 5 + 1/4(1 - 5) = 5 - 1 = 4
<u>Find the coordinates of E:</u>
- x = 13 + 1/4(17 - 13) = 13 + 1 = 14
- y = 9 + 1/4(1 - 9) = 9 - 2 = 7
<u>Find the coordinates of the midpoint M of DE:</u>
- x = (5 + 14)/2 = 19/2 = 9.5
- y = (4 + 7)/2 = 11/2 = 5.5
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:

x ≠ 0
x ≠ - 2
x ≠ - 1

x = 2
Answer:
288 trust me it is 100% right I tried it as an answer an got it right.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula a^2+b^2=c^ which is 7.21
solution is (4, - 7 )
given the equations
y = 2x - 15 → (1)
4x + 3y = - 5 → (2)
substitute y = 2x - 15 into (2)
4x + 3(2x - 15) = - 5
4x + 6x - 45 = - 5
10x - 45 = - 5 ( add 45 to both sides )
10x = 40 ( divide both sides by 10 )
x = 4
substitute x = 4 into (1) for corresponding value of y
y = (2 × 4 ) - 15 = 8 - 15 = - 7
solution is (4, - 7 )
