For a segment AB, the coordinates of the middle point C are:

xc=(xa+xb)/2,

yc=(ya+yb)/2.

Now, you know points A and C. Thus we get:

xb=2×xc-xa

yb=2×yc-ya

With numerical values:

xb=2×2-(-1)=4+1=5

yb=2×3-(-5)=6+5=11

Answer: B(5, 11)

An experiment consists of rolling two fair number cubes. What is the probability that the sum of the two numbers will be >3

liraira [26]

Answer: $\bold{\dfrac{5}{12}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

greater than 3 means the sum is either 4, 5, or 6.

There are 15 permutations that meet the criteria:

(1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1,6)

(2, 2), (2, 3), (2, 4), (2, 5), (2,6)

(3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (3, 4), (3, 5), (3,6)

(4, 1), (4, 2), (4, 3), (4, 4), (4, 5), (4,6)

(5, 1), (5, 2), (5, 3), (5, 4), (5, 5), (5,6)

(6, 1), (6, 2), (6, 3), (6, 4), (6, 5), (6,6)

There are 6²= 36 total permutations for 2 dice.

$Probability=\dfrac{\#\ of\ permutations> 3}{total\ \#\ of\ permutations}\\\\.\qquad \qquad =\dfrac{15}{36}\\\\.\qquad \qquad =\dfrac{5}{12}\\\\$

A certain alloy contains 5.25% copper. How much copper is there I a piece weighing 200 pounds?

kykrilka [37]

Find 5.25% of 200
remember
1% of 100=1
therefor
1% of 200=2
just remove the decimal and double it (for this special case of finding percent of 200)

5.25% of 200=5.25 times 2=10.5
answer is 10.5 pounds of copper
(the legit way is 0.0525 times 200=10.5 pound)

10.5lb is answer
