Answer:

The midpoint is (2 , 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint, we have to add the corresponding coordinates

[(-5 , 3) + (3 , -1)] / 2

we separate into the corresponding

(-5 + 3) / 2 =

-2 / 2 = -1

(3 - 1) / 2 =

2 / 2 = 1

The midpoint is (2 , 1)

Bezzdna [24]

To make this easy let covert everything using a LCD.

The LCD of 1/4 1/12 and 1/6 is 12. This becomes...

Tom ate 3/12 of the pizza.
Leftover pizza = 9/12.
Slices were 1/12.
X friends got pizza.
Remaining pizza is 2/12.

if each friend got 1 piece(1/12)....
9/12(Leftovers) - 2/12(remaining) = 7/12

So 7 friends got pizza.

Answer: The greatest number of rows Li Na can plant is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Li Na is going to plant 63 tomato plants and 81 rhubarb plants.

Li Na would like to plant the plants in rows where each row has the same number of tomato plants and each row has the same number of rhubarb plants.

To find the greatest number of rows Li Na can plant, we need to find the GCF of 63 and 81.

Since , $63=7\times9\ and\ 81=8\times9$
