Find ​(a) PQ to the nearest tenth and ​(b) the coordinates of the midpoint of __ pq.

Mathematics
1 answer:
lutik1710 [3]2 years ago

Answer:

a) 5units

b) (4.5, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the coordinate of P and Q be P(3, 2) and Q(6, 6)

PQ can be gotten using the distance formula;

PQ =√(6-2)²+(6-3)²

PQ = √4²+3²

PQ =√16+9

PQ =√25

PQ = 5units

Midpoint M is  expressed as;

M(X, Y) = {(x1+x2)/2, y1+y2/2}

X = x1+x2/2

X = 3+6/2

X= 9/2

X = 4.5

Similarly;

Y = y1+y2/2

Y = 2+6/2

Y = 8/2

Y = 4

Hence the midpoint of PQ is (4.5, 4)

Suppose that a family wants to increase the size of the garden which is currently 16 feet long and 8 feet wide without changing
Cloud [144]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Sides of the garden</u>

  • 16 feet and 8 feet

<u>New dimensions of the garden</u>

  • 16 + 2x and 8 + x

<u>1. The area of the new garden</u>

  • (16 + 2x)(8 + x) =
  • 2x^2 + 32x + 128

<u>2. The difference in area </u>

  • 2x^2 + 32x + 128 - 16*8 =
  • 2x^2 + 32x

<u>3. x= 2 effect on the area</u>

  • 2*2^2 + 32*2 =
  • 8 + 64 =
  • 72 ft²

<u>4. Area difference = 160</u>

  • 2x^2 + 32x = 160
  • x^2 + 16x - 80 = 0
  • Solving we get positive root of 4 ft

<u>5. Area difference = 4 times</u>

  • 2x^2 + 32x = 128*3
  • 2x^2 + 32x - 384 = 0
  • x^2 + 16x - 192= 0
  • Solving we get positive root of 8 ft

How can you quickly determine the number of roots a polynomial will have by looking at the equation?
Shtirlitz [24]

One can determine the number of roots by seeing the degree of the given polynomial.

The number of roots can be determined by just seeing the highest power of the given equation.

1) for the equation  x-4=0

here, the highest power of the equation is one. So, it will have one root.

<h3>What is the polynomial?</h3>

A polynomial is an expression consisting of indeterminates and coefficients, that involves only the operations of addition, subtract multiplication, on,  and non-negative integer exponentiation of variables.

Let's check it by simplifying x-4=0  which implies x=4

Hence, the equation has only one root namely x = 4.

2) Consider a quadratic equation,

10t^2-t-3=0

here, the highest power of the equation is two. So, it will have two roots.

Let's check it by simplifying using the middle term splitting method,

10t^2+5t-6t-3=0

5t(2t+1)-3(2t+1)=0

(5t-3)(2t+1)=0

t=-3/5 or t=-1/2

Thus, the equation has two roots.

Hence, one can determine the number of roots by seeing the degree of the given polynomial.

Help me<br><br>6 = 1/5 (4y + 10)​
gregori [183]

Step-by-step explanation:

open the bracket

6={(1/5×4y) + 1/5×10}

6=4/5y+2

6-2=4/5y

4=4/5y

divide both sides by 4/5

y=1/5
