Answer:

Length of segment =4\sqrt5 units = 8.94 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

End point of line: (2,1)

Midpoint of line: (-2,-1)

To find length of line segment.

Solution:

Distance from endpoint to midpoint is half the length of segment as the midpoint divides the line into equal halves.

Distance from end point to mid point can be found out using distance formula:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2)

Plugging in points for end point (2,1) and midpoint(-2,-1).

d=\sqrt{(-2-2)^2+(-1-1)^2)

d=\sqrt{(-4)^2+(-2)^2)

d=\sqrt{16+4)

d=\sqrt{20}

d=2\sqrt{5}

Length of half segment =2\sqrt{5} units

∴ Length of segment = 2\times length\ of\ half\ segment= 2\times 2\sqrt5=4\sqrt5 units

NO LINKS..... There are 39 people on a city bus. The ratio of adults to children is 10:3. At the next stop, 3 adults get off the
Zarrin [17]
Since the ratio is 10:3 we can find the total number of children and adults by finding how many times 13 (10+3) goes into 39. 39 / 13 = 3 so we can take the original 10:3 ratio and just scale it up to fit the whole group 10:3 * 3 -> 30:9:

From here it gets a little easier we know three adults of the 30 get off at the next stop bringing us to 27. So now our ratio is 27:9 we can simplify that down to 3:1 to get our final answer. Hope that helps!

Setler [38]

Answer:

12 - 4i

Step-by-step explanation:

-2i ( 2+6i)

Distribute

-2i * 2 + -2i *6i

-4i - 12 i^2

We know that i^2 = -1 so replace it

-4i - 12(-1)

-4i + 12

Then put in the order a+bi  where the real number comes first and the imaginary number comes last

12 - 4i
