Answer:

2x+y=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-5)=-2(x-(-1))

y+5=-2(x+1)

y=-2x-2-5

y=-2x-7

-2x-y=7

2x+y=-7

8) Find the endpoint Cif M is the midpoint of segment CD and M (2, 4) and D (5,7)

Elenna [48]

Answer:

8. c. (-1, -1)

9. a. (-6, -1)

b. True

Step-by-step Explanation:

8. Given the midpoint M(2, 4), and one endpoint D(5, 7) of segment CD, the coordinate pair of the other endpoint C, can be calculated as follows:

let $D(5, 7) = (x_2, y_2)$

$C(?, ?) = (x_1, y_1)$

$M(2, 4) = (\frac{x_1 + 5}{2}, \frac{y_1 + 7}{2})$

Rewrite the equation to find the coordinates of C

$2 = \frac{x_1 + 5}{2}$ and $4 = \frac{y_1 + 7}{2}$

Solve for each:

$2 = \frac{x_1 + 5}{2}$

$2*2 = \frac{x_1 + 5}{2}*2$

$4 = x_1 + 5$

$4 - 5 = x_1 + 5 - 5$

$-1 = x_1$

$x_1 = -1$

$4 = \frac{y_1 + 7}{2}$

$4*2 = \frac{y_1 + 7}{2}*2$

$8 = y_1 + 7$

$8 - 7 = y_1 + 7 - 7$

$1 = y_1$

$y_1 = 1$

Coordinates of endpoint C is (-1, 1)

9. a.Given segment AB, with midpoint M(-4, -5), and endpoint A(-2, -9), find endpoint B as follows:

let $A(-2, -9) = (x_2, y_2)$

$B(?, ?) = (x_1, y_1)$

$M(-4, -5) = (\frac{x_1 + (-2)}{2}, \frac{y_1 + (-9)}{2})$

$-4 = \frac{x_1 - 2}{2}$ and $-5 = \frac{y_1 - 9}{2}$

Solve for each:

$-4 = \frac{x_1 - 2}{2}$

$-4*2 = \frac{x_1 - 2}{2}*2$

$-8 = x_1 - 2$

$-8 + 2 = x_1 - 2 + 2$

$-6 = x_1$

$x_1 = -6$

$-5 = \frac{y_1 - 9}{2}$

$-5*2 = \frac{y_1 - 9}{2}*2$

$-10 = y_1 - 9$

$-10 + 9 = y_1 - 9 + 9$

$-1 = y_1$

$y_1 = -1$

Coordinates of endpoint B is (-6, -1)

b. The midpoint of a segment, is the middle of the segment. It divides the segment into two equal parts. The answer is TRUE.

Write a proof for the biconditional using the inverse and contrapositive.

MariettaO [177]

I don’t really understand the question at hand but let me try to help

X is equal to 4 we know this because because the sign in between the number means greater than or equal to so 3 x 4 equals 12 and that makes the equation on right true and on the left x is also equal to for which also makes the statement on the right true as well so I think X = 4

I hope I was able to help and If not I’m sorry
