Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoints are found by averaging the coordinates.

Averaging " add all the numbers and divide by the number of numbers.

Here, there are only 2 numbers. So, you divide by 2.

(1,2) (1,-5)

$\frac{1 +1}{2}$ , $\frac{2 + (-5)}{2}$

$\frac{2}{2}$ , $\frac{-3}{2}$

(1, $\frac{-3}{2}$ )

Which best describes the graphs of the line that passes through (−12, 15) and (4, −5), and the line that passes through (−8, −9)

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

C) They are perpendicular lines.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to find the slope of the graph of the lines passing through these points using:

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

The slope of the line that passes through (−12, 15) and (4, −5) is

$m_{1} = \frac{ - 5 - 15}{4 - - 12}$

$m_{1} = \frac{ - 20}{16} = - \frac{5}{4}$

The slope of the line going through (−8, −9) and (16, 21) is

$m_{2} = \frac{21 - - 9}{16 - - 8}$

$m_{2} = \frac{21 + 9}{16 + 8}$

$m_{2} = \frac{30}{24} = \frac{5}{4}$

The product of the two slopes is

$m_{1} \times m_{2} = - \frac{4}{5} \times \frac{5}{4} = - 1$

Since

$m_{1} \times m_{2} = - 1$

the two lines are perpendicular.

I need to increase my sales by 35% this month I’m currently at 45 sales how many sales do I need to meet my goal ?

telo118 [61]

Assume that 100% = 45 sales and 35% = X sales amount

You can create a ratio to help you solve for x

45 = 100%
x = 35 %

Which is equal to this fraction: (45/x) = (100/35)

Solving for X by cross multiplying and dividing by 100:
[(45)(35)] / 100 = X = 15.75 = 16 sales (rounded up)

You would need at least 16 sales to increase sales total by 35%

Find the area of this shape. Correct answer will Brainliest

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

As shown in picture, this is a trapezoid.

The area of a trapezoid is calculated by:

A = (base1 + base2) x height x (1/2)

To work out A, we need to find out base1, base2, and height.

base1 = YZ = $\sqrt{(Zx - Yx)^{2} + (Zy - Yy)^{2} } = \sqrt{(5 - 2)^{2} + (5 - 5)^{2} } = 3$
