Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Sol: the ratio formula is

x-x1/x2-x = ratio and y-y1/ y2-y= ratio

x-(-7)/0-x=2/1 and y-17/0-y=2/1

x+7=2(-x) and y-17 = -2y

x+2x=-7 and y+2y =17

3x=-7 and 3y = 17

x=-7/3 and y= 17/3

coordinates of point p that partition the segment in ratio is (-7/3, 17/3)

The midpoint formula is:

M= (x1+x2/2, y1+y2/2)

= (-7+0/2, 17+0/2)

= (-7/2, 17/2) are the midpoint of AB.

In the figure shown the value of a is equal to

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

a = 7.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure has been re-labelled and attached to this response.

From the figure, the larger right triangle DAB and the small right triangle BCA are similar. This is because;

i. They have two corresponding congruent angles which are the right angle

and angle B

Therefore, we can say that;

$\frac{|DB|}{|BA|} = \frac{|AB|}{|BC|}$

$\frac{13}{a} = \frac{a}{4}$

Cross multiply

a x a = 13 x 4

a² = 52

a = √52

a = 7.2

Note: The figure showing the similar triangles has also been attached to this response.

What is the interquartile range of the data set below? Growth in feet of oak trees: 68,80,73,90,120,94,76,112,101,94,72 (1) 22

sdas [7]

68,80,73,90,120,94,76,112,101,94,72 --->
68, 72, 73, 76, 80, 90, 94, 94, 101, 112, 120

Median = 90
Lower Median = 73
Upper Median = 101

IQR = 101 - 73
IQR = 28
