Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The <u><em>Midpoint Theorem</em></u> states that the segment joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints of those sides is parallel to the third side and is half the length of the third side.
so
In this problem
solve for x
Multiply by 2 both sides
subtract 2x both sides
Adds 1 both sides
If you multiply the top equation by -2 you get:
-4x -14y = 14 => -4x = 14+14y
now you can plug in the -4x into the second equation:
14+14y - 3y = -19 => 11y = -33 => y=-3
Fill in y=-3 in either equation to find x:
2x - 21 = -7 => 2x = 14 => x=7
So your ordered pair is (7,-3)
Answer:
3 times more.
Step-by-step explanation:
The odds of landing a dart in any of the circles correspond to the surface area of the circle.
Calculate the surface area of both circles:
The formula for the area of a circle is .
- inner circle:
- for the outer circle, use the formula then subtract the value of the inner circle, to find the remaining area:
Calculating greater chance:
Divide the larger area by the smaller area:
That means that the area of the outer circle is 3 times larger, making it 3 times more likely to hit the outer circle. Therefore the points for hitting the inner circle should be 3 times more.
