Answer:

The other end of the line segment is at (-8, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know one end point and the midpoint, all we need to do is take the vector from the end point to the midpoint, and add it again to the midpoint to find the other end point:

dx = -5 - (-2) = -3

dy = -1 - (-5) = 4

-5 + dx = -8

-1 + dx = 3

So the other end of the line segment is at (-8, 3)

The weight of an object on the moon varies directly with its weight on the earth. If an object weighing 95 lbs on the moon weigh

Luda [366]

ANSWER

450lb

EXPLANATION

If the weight, m of an object on the moon varies directly as the weight of an object e, on the earth, then we can write the mathematical statement,.
$m \propto \: e$
We introduce the constant of proportionality to obtain,

$m = ke$

When, m=95, e=570,

This implies that,

$95 = 570k$
$k = \frac{95}{570}$

$k = \frac{1}{6}$

The equation now becomes,

$m = \frac{1}{6} e$

We want to find e, when m=2700,

$m = \frac{1}{6} \times 2700$

$m =450lb$

The frequency table, stem and leaf plot, and histogram are attached.

The histogram looks similar to the stem and leaf plot, except turned on its side. It is different from the frequency table in shape, but the numbers in the table are the same as the size of the bars.

The height of the bars in the histogram is the same as the number of leaves in the stem and leaf plot, and it is also the same as the numbers in the frequency table. Using larger intervals will result in larger bars on the histogram and larger numbers in the frequency table; smaller intervals will result in smaller bars and smaller numbers in the table.
