What are the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are (-4,6) and (-8,-2)

1 answer:

4 0

The formula to find the midpoint of a segment is ((x1 + x2)/2,),(y1 + y2)/2).

The x coordinate of the first point is -4, and the x coordinate of the second point is -8. The y coordinate of the first point is 6, and the y coordinate of the second point is -2. Now, we can plug these into our formula.

((-4 + (-8))/2), (6 + (-2))/2)) = (-12/2), (4/2) = (-6, 2)

So, (-6, 2) is the midpoint of the segment.

Question 1-3

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of a function f(x) on an interval [a, b] is given by the formula ...

rate of change = (f(b) -f(a))/(b -a)

For the given function and interval, this is ...

(log₂(4·8) -log₂(4·2))/(8 -2) = (5 -3)/(6) = 1/3

The average rate of change is 1/3.

_____

In the attached graph, the line between the points at the ends of the interval can be seen to have a rise of 1 for a run of 3. Its slope is 1/3.

The height of a stuntperson jumping off a building that is 20 m high is modeled by the equation h = 20 -57, where t is the time

cupoosta [38]

A stuntman jumping off a 20-m-high building is modeled by the equation h = 20 – 5t2, where t is the time in seconds. A high-speed camera is ready to film him between 15 m and 10 m above the ground. For which interval of time should the camera film him?

Answer:

$1\leq t\geq \sqrt{2}$
