<em>The x coordinate of the other endpoint is -6</em>

<em></em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The midpoint formula can be found as:

M(x,y)=\lef(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2},\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2} )

So we have the midpoint:

(-2,9)

and an endpoint:

(2,8)

So, we can find the x coordinate of the other endpoint, say, x_{2} as:

x=\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2} \\ \\ Isolating \ x_{2}: \\ \\ x_{1}+x_{2}=2x \\ \\ x_{2}=2x-x_{1} \\ \\ x=-2 \\ \\ x_{1}=2 \\ \\ x_{2}=2(-2)-2 \\ \\ x_{2}=-4-2 \\ \\ x_{2}=-6

In conclusion, <em>the x coordinate of the other endpoint is -6</em>

<em></em>

Which is the equation of an asymptote of the hyperbola whose equation is
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

C. y = 3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the general equation of a hyperbola:

\frac{(x-h)^{2} }{a^{2}}-\frac{(y-k)^{2} }{b^{2}}=1

The equation for the asymptote line is given by:

y=k+\frac{b}{a} (x-h)

In your problem, we have

\frac{(x-2)^{2} }{4}-\frac{(y-1)^{2} }{36}=1

we have:

h=2,

k=1

a²=4 --> a=2,    im just taking the squareroot

b²=36 --> b=6

put it into your equation

y=k+\frac{b}{a} (x-h)

y=1+\frac{6}{2} (x-2)

y = 1 + 3(x-2)

y = 1 + 3x - 6

y = 3x - 5

3. Write 7 thousandths as a decimal.<br> Comments
Verdich [7]

Answer:

7 thousandths as a decimal is 0.007

Step-by-step explanation:

Special right triangle
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6) taking 45 degrees as the reference angle,

the adjacent side is √6

The opposite side is x

The hypotenuse is y

Therefore, we would apply trigonometric ratio.

Tan # = opposite side / adjacent side

Tan 45 = x/√6

1 = x/√6

x = 1 × √6 = √6

Cos # = adjacent side/hypotenuse

Cos 45 = √6/y

Cos 45 expressed in surd form is √2/2. Therefore,

√2/2 = √6/y

y √2 = 2√6

y = (2√6)/√2
