7, as the square root of 49 is 7

(The sides would be equal, and so the area would be one side squared)

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

D(4,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given three of the vertices of the square: A(4, -7), B(8, -7),C(8, -3)

Let the coordinate of the fourth vertex be D(x,y).

We know that diagonals of a square are perpendicular bisector. So, the midpoint of both diagonals is the same.

The diagonals are BD and AC

Midpoint of BD = Midpoint of AC

$\left(\dfrac{8+x}{2},\dfrac{-7+y}{2}\right) =\left(\dfrac{4+8}{2},\dfrac{-7+(-3)}{2}\right)\\ \left(\dfrac{8+x}{2},\dfrac{y-7}{2}\right) =\left(\dfrac{12}{2},\dfrac{-10}{2}\right)\\ \left(\dfrac{8+x}{2},\dfrac{y-7}{2}\right) =\left(6,-5\right)\\$Therefore$:\\\dfrac{8+x}{2}=6\\8+x=12\\x=12-8\\x=4\\$Similarly$\\\dfrac{y-7}{2}=-5\\y-7=-5*2\\y-7=-10\\y=-10+7=-3$

The coordinates of the fourth vertex is D(4,-3)

What is the percent equation for 46% of 127?

Brut [27]

Answer:

46% of 127 is 58.42

Step-by-step explanation:

46/100 = x/127

Cross multiply

46 × 127 = 100 × x

5,842 = 100x

Divide both sides by 100

58.42 = x

A stretched spring has a length of 12 inches when a weight of 2 lbs is attached to the spring. The same spring has a length of 1

Advocard [28]

The way I figured this one out was saying that if it takes 2lbs to stretch it to 12 inches and 5lbs to stretch to 18 inches that means that 3 additional pounds = 6 inches. Therefore, each additional pound is 2 inches. We know already that with 2 lbs it was 12 inches in length and we can also say that 2 lbs = 4 inches. So subtract 4 from 12 and you end up with the answer of 8 inches.

A university is building a new student center that is two- thirds the distance from the arts center to the residential complex.

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

$C = (\frac{21}{5},\frac{33}{5})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Points: (1, 9) and (9, 3)

Ratio = 2/3

Required

Determine the coordinate of the center

Represent the ratio as ratio

$Ratio = 2:3$

The new coordinate can be calculated using

$C = (\frac{mx_2 + nx_1}{n + m},\frac{my_2 + ny_1}{n + m})$

Where

$(x_1,y_1) = (1, 9)$

$(x_2, y_2) = (9, 3)$

$m:n = 2:3$

Substitute these values in the equation above

$C = (\frac{2 * 9 + 3 * 1}{3 + 2},\frac{2 * 3 + 3 * 9}{2 + 3})$

$C = (\frac{18 + 3}{5},\frac{6 + 27}{5})$

$C = (\frac{21}{5},\frac{33}{5})$

Hence;

<em>The coordinates of the new center is </em> $C = (\frac{21}{5},\frac{33}{5})$ <em></em>
