Answer:
(-4, -1/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
to calculate the midpoints bt of the line use the ormula:
Where (x1, x2) is one coordinate point and (y1, y2) is anither coordinate point. Any two points will work, but I chose A (-5,-4) and B (-3, 3).
(-4, -1/2)
Answer:
x = 12.1
Step-by-step explanation:
20 − (z + 7) = 0.9
Distribute the minus sign
20 -x -7 = .9
Combine like terms
13 -x = .9
Subtract 13 from each side
-x = -12.1
x = 12.1
6506 or 656 is the answer
If the bacteria is tripling every 10 minutes, that means the "rate of increase" on that period is 200%, so if say the current amount is "c", 200% of "c" is just 2c, so c + 2c is 3c, a tripled amount.
I believe you need to solve this using the quadratic formula!
To begin, this is what it is:
x= -b ± <span>√ b^2 - 4ac / 2a
Just plug in what you have in your problem...
2 being a, 13 being b, and -24 being c.
So we get:
x= -13 </span>± <span>√13^2 - 4(2)(-24) / 2(2)
x= -13 </span><span>± √169 - 8 (-24) / 4</span>
<span>x= -13 <span>± √169 + 192 / 4</span>
x= -13 </span>± √<span>361 / 4
The square root of 361 is 19.
So you have: -13 </span><span>± 19 / 4.
Here's where you take the equation </span>-13 <span>± 19 and put the addition and subtraction sign to use.
-13 - 19 = -32
and
-13 + 19 = 6
Now all is left to do is divide the two numbers by 4.
-32/4 = -8
and
6/4 = 3/2
x = -8, 3/2</span>
