Answer: 3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

My explanation is if you were to write this down, i drew "J", "K", "L", and "M" down from left to write on a line w/ points and then i wrote that " J M " = 5 x - 8, and that " L M " = 2 x - 6, and then subtracted ( 5 x - 8 ) by ( 2 x - 6 ) which would look like this:

( 5 x - 8 ) - ( 2 x - 6 )

The reason i subtracted the total length of the entire number line is because the length of " L M " is part of the total length so you would have to subtract in order to find " J L " because then you wouldn't have to have " L M ". The correct answer is "3 x - 2"

What is the force of gravity (in Newtons) acting between the Earth and a 100-kg person who is on board the International Space S

ratelena [41]

Answer:

$f_{G}=317877.55 N = 317.8 kN$

Step-by-step explanation:

$f_{G}= (G*m_{1}*m_{2})/r^{2} \\Where:\\f_{G}= force of gravity\\G=gravitational constant= 6.6x10^{-11}m^{3}kg^{-1}s^{-2}\\ m_{1}= earth mass = 5.9x10^{24}kg\\m_{2}=person mass = 100kg\\r= distance between the bodies=350km= 350 000 m$

Graph the line with slope -1/3 passing through the point (2,1)

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1) y1 = 1 x1 = 2 m = -1/3

y - 1 = -1/3(x - 2)

y = -x/3 + 2/3

What is the end point and mid point

son4ous [18]

The endpoints are the points which represent or marks the end of a line segment or an interval. So, the endpoints would be the same points given which are ( 5/3, 1 ) and ( 0, 2). The midpoint, on the other hand, is the point that is located halfway through the line segment or the interval. It divides the segment into two parts with equal lengths. We calculate it by the formula,
midpoint = ((x1 + x2) / 2, (y1 + y2) / 2)

We substitute the points given above to the formula as follows:

midpoint = ((5/3 + 0) / 2, (1 + 2) / 2)
midpoint = 5/6 , 3/2

So, the midpoint is located at point 5/6, 3/2.
