Answer:

Midpoint (2 , -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

RULE: (midpoint)

Consider P(x1,y1)and Q(x2,y2) two points:

the midpoint M(x,y) of the segment PQ is defined like this:

$x = \frac{x1+x2}{2} \\\\y=\frac{y1+y2}{2}$

In our case

x1 = 6 ; y1 = -3

x2 = -2 ; y2 = -7

then

$x = \frac{6+(-2)}{2} =2\\\\y = \frac{(-3)+(-7)}{2} =-5$

Equality Properties

Multiplication Property of Equality
Division Property of Equality
Addition Property of Equality
Subtract Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

5x = 2

Step 2: Solve for x

Divide 5 on both sides: x = 2/5

Step 3: Check

Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.

Substitute in x: 5(2/5) = 2
Multiply: 2 = 2

Here we see that 2 does indeed equal 2.

∴ x = 2/5 is the solution to the equation.

A safety officer wants to prove that μ = the average speed of cars driven by a school is less than 25 mph. Suppose that a random

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

$t=\frac{24-25}{\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{14}}}=-1.70$

The degrees of freedom are given by:

$df=n-1=14-1=13$

The p value for this case would be given by:

$p_v =P(t_{(13)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

$\bar X=24$ represent the mean height for the sample

$s=2.2$ represent the sample standard deviation

$n=14$ sample size

$\mu_o =25$ represent the value that we want to test

t would represent the statistic

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test

Hypothesis to verify

We want to cehck if the true mean is lees than 25 mph, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \geq 25$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu < 25$

The statistic would be given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

Replacing the info given we got:

$t=\frac{24-25}{\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{14}}}=-1.70$

The degrees of freedom are given by:

$df=n-1=14-1=13$

The p value for this case would be given by:

$p_v =P(t_{(13)}$

The polar curve $r = 1 + \cos \theta$ is rotated once around the point with polar coordinates $(2,0).$ What is the area of the r

mash [69]

Answer:

$Area = -2.3147$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$r = 1 + \cos \theta$

Required

Determine the area with coordinates $(2,0)$

The area is represented as:

$Area = \frac{1}{2}\int\limits^b_a {r^2} \, d\theta$

Where

$r = 1 + \cos \theta$

and

$(a,b) = (2,0)$

Substitute values for r, a and b in

$Area = \frac{1}{2}\int\limits^b_a {r^2} \, d\theta$

$Area = \frac{1}{2}\int\limits^0_2 {(1 + cos\theta)^2} \, d\theta$

Expand

$Area = \frac{1}{2}\int\limits^0_2 {(1 + cos\theta)(1 + cos\theta)} \, d\theta$

$Area = \frac{1}{2}\int\limits^0_2 {(1 + 2cos\theta+cos^2\theta} )\, d\theta$

By integratin the above, we get:

$Area = \frac{1}{2}*\frac{(cos(\theta) + 4)sin(\theta) + 3\theta}{2}[0,2]$

$Area = \frac{(cos(\theta) + 4)sin(\theta) + 3\theta}{4}[0,2]$

Substitute 0 and 2 for $\theta$ one after the other

$Area = \frac{(cos(0) + 4)sin(0) + 3*0}{4} - \frac{(cos(2) + 4)sin(2) + 3*2}{4}$

$Area = \frac{(cos(0) + 4)sin(0)}{4} - \frac{(cos(2) + 4)sin(2) + 6}{4}$

$Area = \frac{(1 + 4)*0}{4} - \frac{(cos(2) + 4)sin(2) + 6}{4}$

$Area = - \frac{(cos(2) + 4)sin(2) + 6}{4}$

$Area = \frac{-sin(2)(cos(2) + 4) - 6}{4}$

Get sin(2) and cos(2) in radians

$Area = \frac{-0.9093 * (-0.4161 + 4) - 6}{4}$

$Area = \frac{-9.2588}{4}$

$Area = -2.3147$
