On the coordinate grid of a map. Jeff's house is located at (9,5). Hannah's house is at (-5,-5). Kenya's house is located at the

midpoint between Jeff and Hannah's houses. What is the distance from Hannah's house to Kenya's house?

The midpoint formula is \frac{ x_{1} +  x_{2} }{2},  \frac{ y_{1}+ y_{2}  }{2}
So just plug in the corresponding coordinates in the correct place to get the midpoint.
x_1=-5 ; x_2=9 ;  y_1=-5 ; y_2=5
((-5 + 9)/2 , (-5 + 5)/2)
(4/2 , 0/2)
(2,0) is where Kenya's house is(which is the midpoint). 

The distance formula is a bit more complicated than that. The distance formula is D=\sqrt{({y_{2}- y_{1} }^{2})  + ({ x_{2}- x_{1}}^{2} )  }
In this case now, your looking for the distance from Hannah's house to Kenya's house.
D=\sqrt{(-5-2)^{2} + (-5-0)^{2}  }
=\sqrt{49+25}
=\sqrt{74} ≈8.6023

The height of the sail on a boat is 7 feet less than 3 times the length of its base. If the
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

Base=8 feet

Height=17 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Base=x

Height=3x-7

Area=68 square feet

Area of the sail boat=1/2 * base * height

68 = 1/2 * x * (3x-7)

Cross product

68 * 2 =(1) * (x) * (3x-7)

136 = 3x^2 - 7x

3x^2 - 7x - 136=0

Using quadratic formula

x= -b +or- √b^2 - 4ac / 2a

= -(-7) +or- √(-7)^2 - (4)(3)(-136) / 2(3)

= 7 +or- √49 - (-1632) / 6

= 7 +or- √49+1632) / 6

= 7 +or- √1681 / 6

=7 +or- 41 /6

x= 7+41 / 6 or 7-41 / 6

=48/6 or -34/6

=8 or -17/3

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Base=x

Height=3x-7

Area=68 square feet

Area of the sail boat=1/2 * base * height

68 = 1/2 * x * (3x-7)

Cross product

68 * 2 =(1) * (x) * (3x-7)

136 = 3x^2 - 7x

3x^2 - 7x - 136=0

Base of the boat can't be a negative value

Therefore,

Base = x = 8 feet

Height= 3x-7

=3(8)-7

=24-7

=17 feet

 Hester sells televisions. She earns a fixed amount for each television and an additional $ 15 if the buyer gets an extended war
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

y =mx +bx

Where y is the total amount earned, m the amount for each extended warranty and b the fixed cost and x the total amount of TVs

For this case the value of x = 16 since we have 16 Tvs with extended warranties and we can do this:

1200 = 15*16 +16b

and solving for b we got:

b= \frac{1200-15*16}{16}= 60

And then we can conclude that she earns 60 for each TV

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we can set a linear model like this:

y =mx +bx

Where y is the total amount earned, m the amount for each extended warranty and b the fixed cost and x the total amount of TVs

For this case the value of x = 16 since we have 16 Tvs with extended warranties and we can do this:

1200 = 15*16 +16b

and solving for b we got:

b= \frac{1200-15*16}{16}= 60

And then we can conclude that she earns 60 for each TV

At a certain high school, 15 students play stringed instruments and
Aleks [24]

Answer:

<em>0</em> is the probability that a  randomly selected student plays both a stringed and a brass  instrument.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of students who play stringed instruments, N(A) = 15

Number of students who play brass instruments, N(B) = 20

Number of students who play neither, N(A \cup B)' = 5

<u>To find:</u>

The probability that a randomly selected students plays both = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

Total Number of students = N(A)+N(B)+N(A \cup B)' =15 + 20 + 5 = 40

(As there is no student common in both the instruments we can simply add the three values to find the total number of students)

As per the venn diagram, no student plays both the instruments i.e.

N(A\cap B) =0

Formula for probability of an event E can be observed as:

P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}

P(A\cap B) = \dfrac{N(A\cap B)}{N(U)}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{0}{40}\\\Rightarrow P(A\cap B) = 0

So, <em>0</em> is the probability that a  randomly selected student plays both a stringed and a brass  instrument.
