Answer:

P (-1 , 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

M (-6 , 2)      N (9 , -4)     P (x , y)

horizontal distance of M and N = 9 - (-6) = 15

vertical distance of M and N = 2 - (-4) = 6

1/3 from x coordinate of M (-6): -6 + 15/3 = -1    This is x coordinate of point P

1/3 from y coordinate of M (2): 2 - 6/3 = 0    This is y coordinate of point P

P (x , y)  i.e P (-1 , 0)

check: distance of MP = √(-1 - (-6))² + (0 - 2)² = √29 = 5.385

distance of PN = √(-1 - 9)² + (0 - (-4))² = √116 = 10.77

MP / PN = 5.385 / 10.77 = 0.5 = 1/2

Nastasia [14]

The answer is D.

The full specification of Newton's First Law is (from Wikipedia)

In an inertial frame of reference, an object either remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity, unless acted upon by a force.

On earth we're generally in slightly a non-inertial frame, with rotation and revolution around the sun. It's also impossible to turn of gravity, so objects are being acted upon by an outside force. Typically there's also the outside force of friction, which makes things tend to stop.

Find the inverse of the function. y = x2 + 4x + 4
QveST [7]
Factors of 4: 2 and 2
y= (x+2)²
+√y or -√y = x+2

x= 2+√y , 2-√y

interchange variables
y= 2+√x , 2-√x

f ⁻¹(x) = 2 + √x, 2 - √x

Place 3 numbers between 12 and 60 to make a sequence of 5 numbers with a common difference
Vilka [71]

The 3 numbers which should be placed between 12 and 60 are; 24, 36 and 48.

<h3>What three numbers should be placed between 12 and 60?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the first and last numbers are; 12 and 60 respectively.

Hence, since the difference between 12 and 60 is 48 and there are 4 transitions between the two numbers to have 5 total numbers,

It follows that the common difference is; 48/4 = 12 and the three numbers required are; 24,36 and 48.

Is the answer 24 ?? Someone please help
ELEN [110]
Yes the answer is 24 cm2
because the width is 4 cm then 2 width = 2(4) = 8 cm
perimeter = 20 cm
20-8=12 cm
so 12 cm left is 2 length then the length is 12/2= 6;cm
that's why the area is 4*6= 24 cm2
