Hello!

The midpoint formula is basically an average of x and y.

It is also written as: $(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}} {2},\frac{y_{1}+ y_{2}} {2})$ .

With the formula above, we can substitute the given points into the equation, and simplify.

$(\frac{3 +9}{2}, \frac{9+(-2)}{2}) = (\frac{12}{2}, \frac{7}{2}) = (6, 3.5)$

Therefore, the midpoint between points H and J is choice D, (6, 3.5).

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

x = 8 and y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the figures are congruent:

Angle PQR = EFG

6y + x = 68

Segment QR = FG

2x - 4 = 12

Solving that:

2x - 4 = 12

2x = 16

x = 8

Replacing x in 6y + x =68

6y + 8 = 68

6y = 60

y = 10

Vlada [557]

Answer:

The sample proportion, denoted by ^p, is given by the formula ^p= $\frac{x}{n}$ , where x is the number of individuals with a specified characteristic in a sample of n individuals.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample proportion is used to determine sample mean, sample standard error and test the hypotheses about the population.

sample mean can be stated as p and sample standard error can be found using the equation $\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n} }$ where

n is the sample size

p is the sample proportion

And if n×p×(1-p)≥10, then sample is assumed large enough to assume normal distribution and apply statistical test.
