Answer:

The midpoint is (10, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint, you add the x value from the first coordinate and the x value from the second coordinate, then divide by two to get the x coordinate of the midpoint. You do the the same exact thing with the two y values to find the y coordinate of the midpoint.

2 + 18 = 20

20 / 2 = 10

1 + 7 = 8

8 / 2 = 4

(10, 4)

7. Given a right triangle as shown below, use a calculator to estimate the length of the

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

D. 11.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing length of the right angled triangle can be calculated using Pythagorean Theorem as shown below:

$c^2 - b^2 = a^2$

Where,

a = x cm

b = 11 cm

c = 16 cm

Thus:

$16^2 - 11^2 = x^2$

$256 - 121 = x^2$

$135 = x^2$

$\sqrt{135} = \sqrt{x^2}$

$\sqrt{135} = x$

$11.61895 = x$

$x = 11.6 cm$ (nearest tenth)

If x+a is a factor of 2x²+2ax+5x+10,find a.

vazorg [7]

If $x+a$ is a factor of the polynomial, it means that $-a$ is a root of the polynomial.

In fact, if a polynomial $p(x)$ has a root $x_0$ (i.e. $p(x_0)=0$ ), then the polynomial is divisible by $(x-x_0)$

In your case, you know that the polynomial is divisible by $(x+a)=(x-(-a))$ , so $-a$ is a solution.

Let's evaluate $p(-a)$ and set it to zero:

$2(-a)^2+2a(-a)+5(-a)+10 = 0 \iff 2a^2-2a^2-5a+10=0 \iff -5a+10 = 0 \iff a = 2$

We can check the answer: if $a=2$ the polynomial becomes

$2x^2+2(2)x+5x+10 = 2x^2+9x+10$

And we're claiming that $-a=-2$ is a root of this polynomial:

$2(-2)^2+9(-2)+10 = 2\cdot 4 - 18 + 10 = 0$
