Can someone pls help me!!!

B is the midpoint of AC and E' is the midpoint of BD. If A(-9,-4), C(-1, 6), and E(-4,-3), find the coordinates of D.

Ipatiy [6.2K]

The coordinates for D are (-4, -7)

First we must locate point B as it is vital to finding the midpoint of BD. To do this, we take the average of the endpoints AC since B is its midpoint.

x values = -9 + 1 = -8
Then divide by 2 for the average -8/2 = -4

y values = -4 + 6 = 2
Then divide by 2 for the average 2/2 = 1

Therefore B must be (-4, 1)

Now we know the values of E must be the average of B and D. So we can write equations for each coordinate since we know they are averages.

x - values = (Bx + Dx)/2 = Ex
(-4 + Dx)/2 = -4 ---> multiply both sides by 2
-4 + Dx = -8 ---> add -4 to both sides
Dx = -4

y - values = (By + Dy)/2 = Ey
(1 + Dy)/2 = -3 ---> multiply both sides by 2
1 + Dy = -6 ---> subtract 1 from both side
Dy = -7

So the coordinates for D must be (-4, -7)

How does a change in demand relate to a demand curve

marissa [1.9K]

A change in any one of the underlying factors that determine what quantity people are willing to buy at a given price will cause a shift in demand. Graphically, the new demand curve lies either to the right (an increase) or to the left (a decrease) of the original demand curve.

Suppose Upper F Superscript prime Baseline left-parenthesis x right-parenthesis equals 3 x Superscript 2 Baseline plus 7 and Upp

Sedaia [141]

It looks like you're given

F'(x) = 3x² + 7

and

F (0) = 5

and you're asked to find F(b) for the values of b in the list {0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 2.0}.

The first is done for you, F (0) = 5.

For the remaining b, you can solve for F(x) exactly by using the fundamental theorem of calculus:

$F(x)=F(0)+\displaystyle\int_0^x F'(t)\,\mathrm dt$

$F(x)=5+\displaystyle\int_0^x(3t^2+7)\,\mathrm dt$

$F(x)=5+(t^3+7t)\bigg|_0^x$

$F(x)=5+x^3+7x$

Then F (0.1) = 5.701, F (0.2) = 6.408, F (0.5) = 8.625, and F (2.0) = 27.

On the other hand, if you're expected to approximate F at the given b, you can use the linear approximation to F(x) around x = 0, which is

F(x) ≈ L(x) = F (0) + F' (0) (x - 0) = 5 + 7x

Then F (0) = 5, F (0.1) ≈ 5.7, F (0.2) ≈ 6.4, F (0.5) ≈ 8.5, and F (2.0) ≈ 19. Notice how the error gets larger the further away b gets from 0.

A better numerical method would be Euler's method. Given F'(x), we iteratively use the linear approximation at successive points to get closer approximations to the actual values of F(x).

Let y(x) = F(x). Starting with x₀ = 0 and y₀ = F(x₀) = 5, we have

x₁ = x₀ + 0.1 = 0.1

y₁ = y₀ + F'(x₀) (x₁ - x₀) = 5 + 7 (0.1 - 0) → F (0.1) ≈ 5.7

x₂ = x₁ + 0.1 = 0.2

y₂ = y₁ + F'(x₁) (x₂ - x₁) = 5.7 + 7.03 (0.2 - 0.1) → F (0.2) ≈ 6.403

x₃ = x₂ + 0.3 = 0.5

y₃ = y₂ + F'(x₂) (x₃ - x₂) = 6.403 + 7.12 (0.5 - 0.2) → F (0.5) ≈ 8.539

x₄ = x₃ + 1.5 = 2.0

y₄ = y₃ + F'(x₃) (x₄ - x₃) = 8.539 + 7.75 (2.0 - 0.5) → F (2.0) ≈ 20.164
