On a coordinates plane, a line passes through ( - 2 , 3 ) and ( 2 , 6 ). Which of the followings lies on the same line.

Dahasolnce [82]

By direct comparison and definition of line segment we notice that the point (x, y) = (- 6, 0) lies on the line segment AB as each AP is a multiple of former. (Correct choice: C)

<h3>What point lies on a line segment?</h3>

According to linear algebra, a point lies in a line segment if its vector is a multiple of the vector that generates the line segment itself, that is:

AB = k · AP (1)

The vector that generates the line segment is:

AB = (2, 6) - (- 2, 3)

AB = (4, 3)

And the vectors related to each point are:

Case A

AP = (- 2, 12) - (- 2, 3)

AP = (0, 9)

Case B

AP = (6, 12) - (- 2, 3)

AP = (8, 9)

Case C

AP = (- 6, 0) - (- 2, 3)

AP = (- 4, - 3)

Case D

AP = (- 6, 6) - (- 2, 3)

AP = (- 4, 3)

By direct comparison and definition of line segment we notice that the point (x, y) = (- 6, 0) lies on the line segment AB as each AP is a multiple of former. (Correct choice: C)

Which value of x satisfies the equation |-2x|=10

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you will divide I-2xI on both sides that should look like this:

-2x/-2 = 10/-2

when you divide it your -2‘s should cancel out and you should be left with

-x=10/-2

when You divide 10/-2 you should get -5

10/-2= -5

your answer should look like this then

-x=-5

-5 is just one of your answers the other is 5

To get rid of the negative on the -X you have to didvide it by both sides

-x/-x=-5/-x

your answer should be

X= 5

your final answers are

-5 or 5

How to find the point that is equidistant from (5,-5) and (1,1)

torisob [31]

<h3>Answer: (3, -2)</h3>

Explanation:

Your teacher wants you to find the midpoint. This is the point that is in the middle of the two given points. Let's call this M. So the distance from M to (5,-5) will be the same as the distance from M to (1,1)

The x coordinates of (5,-5) and (1,1) are 5 and 1 respectively.

Add them up: 5+1 = 6

Divide by two: 6/2 = 3

The x coordinate of the midpoint is x = 3

Repeat for the y values -5 and 1

Add: -5+1 = -4

Divide in half: -4/2 = -2

The y coordinate of the midpoint is y = -2

So the midpoint is M = (x,y) = (3,-2)

If you were to use the distance formula, you would find that

distance from (5,-5) to (3,-2) = distance from (3,-2) to (1,1)

This is what it means to be "equidistant" (aka "equally distant")
