The three lines 8x+3y=12, 6y-7x=24, x+9y+33=0 intersect to form a triangle. Find the coordinates of its centroid

Answer:

coordinates of its centroid=(-1,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given three lines are:

8x+3y=12,                                     (1)

6y-7x=24                                      (2)

and x+9y+33.                               (3)

Multiplying equation (1) by 2 and subtract the equation (2), we get

23x=0⇒x=0,

Putting the value of x=0 in equation (2), we get

6y=24

y=4

Now, multiply the first equation by 3 and subtract the equation (3), we get

23x=69⇒x=3

Putting the value of x=3 in equation (1), we get

24+3y=12

3y=-12

y=-4

Also, multiplying the equation (3) by 7 and add the equation (2), we get

69y=-207

y=-3

Putting the value of y=-3 in equation (2), we get

6(-3)-7x=24

-18-24=7x

x=-6

So the centroid is located at (the average of the three vertices):  

x=\frac{0+3-6}{3}=\frac{-3}{3}=-1 and y=\frac{4-4-3}{3}=\frac{-3}{3}=-1.

Thus, the coordinates of its centroid=(-1,-1)

The image of the point (-6, -2)under a translation is (−7,0). Find the coordinates of the image of the point (7,0) under the sam
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

hello :  solutio  ( 6 ; 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

the translation is :    x' = x + a ....(*)

                                 y' = y + b ...(**)

calculate  the coordinates ( a ; b)  of vectro by the translation

you have : x' = -7    y' = 0     x = -6    y = -2

Substitute in (*) , (***) :   -7 = -6 +a

                                      0 = - 2 + b

a = -1   and b= 2

so :  x' = x - 1

      y' = y + 2

calculate now the coordinates of the image of the point (7,0) under the same translation.

x = 7  and b = 0

so : x' = 7-1 = 6   and y' = 0 + 2 = 2

the image is  : ( 6 ; 2 )

The driver of the bus filled the gas tank with gas by putting in 21 gallon. If the gas gauge was at five-eighths before she fill
vazorg [7]

Answer:

56 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

When her gas tank is full, she has x gallons in the tank.

when she went to the gas station, she had (5/8) of x gallons of gas in her tank. she added 21 gallons into her tank, then she had x gallons in her tank.

(5/8)x + 21 = x

subtract x and 21 from both sides

(5/8)x - x = -21

factor out an x from the left side

x(5/8 - 1) = -21

simplify the parenthesis

x(-3/8) = -21

multiply both sides by -8/3

x= 56 gallons
