Another way to solve this is to use the Midpoint Formula. The midpoint of a segment joining points
and
is
So the midpoint of your segment is
Perhaps it helps to see that the x-coordinate of the midpoint is just the average of the x-coordinates of the points. Ditto for the y-coordinate of the midpoint; just average the y's.
Answer:
Hi There the correct answer is {x,y} = {-1,-10}
System of Linear Equations entered :
[1] 3x - y = 7
[2] 4x - 2y = 16
Graphic Representation of the Equations :
y + 3x = 7 -2y + 4x = 16
Solve by Substitution :
// Solve equation [1] for the variable y
[1] y = 3x - 7
// Plug this in for variable y in equation [2]
[2] 4x - 2•(3x-7) = 16
[2] -2x = 2
// Solve equation [2] for the variable x
[2] 2x = - 2
[2] x = - 1
// By now we know this much :
x = -1
y = 3x-7
// Use the x value to solve for y
y = 3(-1)-7 = -10
Solution :
{x,y} = {-1,-10}
Hope it helps!
Answer: 3.4 h
Explanation:
1) The basis to solve this kind of problems is that the speed of working together is equal to the sum of the individual speeds.
This is: speed of doing the project together = speed of Cody working alone + speed of Kaitlyin working alone.
2) Speed of Cody
Cody can complete the project in 8 hours => 1 project / 8 h
3) Speed of Kaitlyn
Kaitlyn can complete the project in 6 houres => 1 project / 6 h
4) Speed working together:
1 / 8 + 1 / 6 = [6 + 8] / (6*8 = 14 / 48 = 7 / 24
7/24 is the velocity or working together meaning that they can complete 7 projects in 24 hours.
Then, the time to complete the entire project is the inverse: 24 hours / 7 projects ≈ 3.4 hours / project.Meaning 3.4 hours to complete the project.
Let S = Sum after 13 years
So = amount invested
t = time in years
i = annual interest rate = .0325
The S = So(1+i)t = $2,200(1.0325)13 = $3,334.21
A vertex can be the max or min. The vertex is the highest point or lowest point of a function.
