Answer:

(-6,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The first endpoint of the line is (-6,8), we can call

x_1 = -6

and

y_1 = 8

Let the last endpoint have coordinates (x_2,y_2)

Also, the midpoint formula is:

(x_1+x_2)/2 , (y_1+y_2)/2

Now, plugging these values is the formula, we get:

(-6+x_2)/2 = -6

-6+x_2=-12

x_2=-12+6 = -6

x_2 = -6

Also

(8+y_2)/2=2

8+y_2=4

y_2=4-8=-4

y_2 = -4

The coordinates of the other endpoint is (-6,-4)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so when subtracting a negative number the number becomes positive and the problem become 28 + 15 because the negative (subtraction) signs cancel out

e) Given the following: Let X = {1, 2, 3, 4) and a relation R on X as R= {(1,2), (2,3), (3,4)}. Find the reflexive and transitiv

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The answer is $\{(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(4,4),(1,2)(2,3)(3,4),(1,3),(1,4)\}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that a reflexive relation $R\subset \mathcal{P}(X)$ , where $\mathcal{P}(X)$ is the power set of $X$ , is one which conteins the ordered pairs of the form $(a,a)$ , for $a\in X$ .

So, As the reflexive and transitive closure of $R$ (that we will denote by $\overline{R}$ ) is in particular reflexive, we must add to $R$ the elements $\{(1,1) , (2,2),(3,3),(4,4) \}$

A transitive relation $R$ is one in which if the pair $(a,b)$ and the pair $(b,c)$ are in there, then the pair $(a,c)$ must be there too.

So, to complete the relation $R$ to be reflexive and transitive we must add the pair $(1,3)$ (because $(1,2),(2,3)$ are in $R$ ), the pair $(2,4)$ , and the pair $(1,4)$ because we added the pair $(2,4)$ .

Therfore we have that $\overline{R}=\{(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(4,4),(1,2)(2,3)(3,4),(1,3),(1,4)\}$ .

$250, 2.85, 3 years find the simple interest SHOW WORK 20 POINTS

Mazyrski [523]

Ok so what we need to find is 3 years of the simple interest so let’s get to it!

Ok so we found the principal price which is 250.00

And our rate is going to be 2.85%

A=P(1+rt)

Therefore the answer is going to be A=$271.38, therefore from the simple interest on a principal of $250.00 at a rate of 2.85% per year for 3 years is $271.38.
