The midpoint of AB is M(-5,1). If the coordinates of A are (-4,-5), what are the coordinates of B?

Elenna [48]

<u>ANSWER:</u>

The midpoint of AB is M(-5,1). The coordinates of B are (-6, 7)

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given, the midpoint of AB is M(-5,1).

The coordinates of A are (-4,-5),

We need to find the coordinates of B.

We know that, mid-point formula for two points A $(x_{1}, y_{1})$ and B $(x_{1}, y_{2})$ is given by

$M\left(x_{3}, y_{3}\right)=\left(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}\right)$

Here, in our problem, $\mathrm{x}_{3}=-5, \mathrm{y}_{3}=1, \mathrm{x}_{1}=-4 \text { and } \mathrm{y}_{1}=-5$

Now, on substituting values in midpoint formula, we get

$(-5,1)=\left(\frac{-4+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{-5+y_{2}}{2}\right)$

On comparing, with the formula,

$\frac{-4+x_{2}}{2}=-5 \text { and } \frac{-5+y_{2}}{2}=1$

$-4+\mathrm{x}_{2}=-10 \text { and }-5+\mathrm{y}_{2}=2$

$\mathrm{x}_{2}=-6 \text { and } \mathrm{y}_{2}=7$

Hence, the coordinates of b are (-6, 7).

At a 3-mile cross-country race, an athlete runs 2 miles at 6 mph and 1 mile at 12 mph. What is the athlete's average speed?

Tom [10]

Answer: the average speed is 7.5 mph or at least im pretty sure

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because if you make the 2 miles at 6 mph to 1 mile at 3 mph then you get 1 mile at 3mph and 1 mile at 12 mph. now that you have the unit rates of these you can add them. 1 + 1 = 2 miles and 3 + 12 = 15 mph now divide this by two and you get 7.5 mph per mile.

I hope this helped, if it did could you give me a good rating? lol

A drawer contains a dozen each of red,blue,green,ad white socks,all unmatched.Laura takes socks out at random in the dark.How ma

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

40 socks

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 48 socks in total inside the drawer. 2 pairs of white socks means four white socks. The worst possible scenario (however unlikely it is) is that Laura takes all of the red, blue and green socks before picking any white sock. From that point on, Laura has to pick four more socks in order to have two white pairs. In this scenario, there are 8 socks left in the drawer, all white. Therefore, the minimum number of socks that Laura must take to be sure that she has two pairs of white socks is:

$n=(12*4) - 8\\n=40\ socks$

She must take at least 40 socks.
