If M is the midpoint of segment RS, then
M = (R + S)/2
2M = R + S . . . . . multiply by 2
S = 2M - R = 2(8, -2) -(10, 5) = (6, -9) . . . . put in the given values
In order to have a linear equation, you have to write an equation like

The sequence has to start with 3, so we must choose
, because this guarantees that when
we have

Now,
must be even. In fact, if
is even,
will always be even for every possible
, and
will be odd.
So, for example, you might choose

Which will produce the following sequence:

and so on
56/47 which is 1.1914 (8x5=40. 40+7=47.)
Answer:
The line represents a direct variation function
The line has a slope of 2
Step-by-step explanation:
In oder to find the slope given two points, use the Slope-Formula to identify the slope
m = slope
m = y2 - y1/x2 - x1
m = -8 - 10/-4 - 5
m = -18/ -9
m = 18/9
m = 2
Therefore, the slope is 2
Answer:
20% of players are left-handed
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find how much each player is worth percent-wise
100 / 80 = 1.25
Then find out how much percent of players that makes up
1.25 x 16 = 20
The answer is 20% of players are left-handed, to check it you could do
80 * 0.2 = 16
<em>(80 = total players, 0.2 = 20%, 16 = total left handed players)</em>
