C(-8,2) and M(0,0) , since M is at the origin. Let x₁ and y₁ be the
coordinates of S →s(x₁ , y₁)
C(-8,2) and S(x₁ , y₁)
The coordinates of M, the midpoint of CS are M(x₂ , y₂)
a) x₂ = (-8 + x₁)/2 , but x₂ = 0, then :
0 = -4+x₁/2 and x₁ = 8
b) y₂ = (2+y₁)/2 , but y₂ = o, then:
0 = 2+ y₁/2 and y₂ = -2
Then the coordinates of S are S(8 , -2)
Answer:
the answer is 0.9988747935
hope that works!!
Answer:
I think it's C, because the figures are similar by THAT statement
Of means multiplication. So the question is 1/3 X 1 1/2. First make 1 1/2 improper: 3/2. Then multiply the numerators (top numbers) and denominaters (bottom numbers): 1x3=3, 3x2=6, =3/6. Now simplify 3/6=1/2. Then multiply that by 2, since he used 2 pieces: 1/2x2=1. John used 1 meter :)
