Answer:

The large number is 31, and the small number is 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

let the first number be x

and the second number be y

so

x+y= 47------------1

and

y-x= 15-------------2

from eqn1

x= 47-y

put this in eqn 2

y-(47-y)=15

y-47+y=15

2y= 15+47

2y=62

divide both side by 2

x= 62/2

x=31

From eqn 1

x+y= 47

31+y=47

y=47-31

y=16

Find the coordinates of the missing endpoint if P is the midpoint of Line Segment NQ.
dimaraw [331]
  • Midpoint formula is (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}) .
<h3>19.</h3>

So starting with this one, we will be solving for the coordinates of the unknown endpoint separately. Starting with the x-coordinate, since we know that the midpoint x-coordinate is 5 and the x-coordinate of N is 2, our equation is set up as such: \frac{x+2}{2}=5 From here we can solve for the x-coordinate of Q.

Firstly, multiply both sides by 2: x+2=10

Next, subtract both sides by 2 and your x-coordinate is x=8

With finding the y-coordinate, it's a similar process as with the x-coordinate except that we are using the y-coordinates of the midpoint and endpoint N.

\frac{y+0}{2}=2\\ y=4

<u>Putting it together, the missing endpoint is (8,4).</u>

<em>(The process is pretty much the same with the other problems, so I'll go through them real quickly.)</em>

<h3>20.</h3>

\frac{x+5}{2}=6\\ x+5=12\\ x=7

\frac{y+4}{2}=3\\ y+4=6\\ y=2

<u>The missing endpoint is (7,2).</u>

<h3>21.</h3>

\frac{x+3}{2}=-1\\ x+3=-2\\ x=-5

\frac{y+9}{2}=5\\ y+9=10\\y=1

<u>The missing endpoint is (-5,1).</u>
