Hey there! I'm happy to help!
The median is the line cutting the triangle in this graph. In general, a median connects any of the triangle points to halfway across the side opposite to that point. This median connects R to halfway across the side across from R.
We want to find the equation of this median. We see that T is at (-2,3) and R is (3,-3). The first thing to do when looking for the equation of the line is to find the slope, or incline. Since we have two points, we can do this very easily. You simply divide the difference in the y-values by the difference in the x-values.
DIFFERENCE IN Y-VALUES
3-(-3)
3+3
6
DIFFERENCE IN X-VALUES
-2-3
-5
Now, we divide the two answers, giving us -6/5.
So, we have our slope, which gives us the equation so far y=-6/5x+b. We just need to find the b, which is our y-intercept. Well, to do this, we plug in one of our points and we can solve for b. We will use (3,-3)!
-3=-6/5(3)+b
-3=-3 3/5+b
We add 3 3/5 to both sides to isolate the b.
b=3/5
This means that this median should hit the y-axis at (0,3/5), and it looks like it does. Therefore, the equation of this median is y=-6/5x+3/5.
Now you can find the slope of a median! Have a wonderful day! :D
The angles of the slices of pizza that she gave her brothers are all 40° because 1/2 of a pizza is 180° and 180/3 since she takes a third of it. She takes the 60° of the pizza half and that leaves you with a 120° piece. 120/3 for her three brothers is 40°.
Answer:
The origin is (0, 0) so let's say we have (0, 5) we find that this point is 5 units away from the origin. We find that by subtracting the origin's y coordinate from our (0, 5) point's y coordinate. This method can be used for the x-axis too.
Answer:
3.
7.608
Step-by-step explanation:
An irrational number is any number which can't be written as a fraction this way. For example, pi and the square root of two cannot be expressed as a fraction of two whole numbers, so they are both irrational.
if we make the respective accounts in the first and second problem we will see that they are irrational numbers
the fourth is a periodic number, which falls within the irrational
the only rational is the third
