Set up a proportion
42.50/5=x/8
5x=340
x=68
He would earn $68
Answer:
B :
Step-by-step explanation:
If you divide a rhombus using its diagonals, you get 4 right triangles, whose legs are both 1/2 the length of the diagonals.
This means that the legs of one of those 4 triangles have lengths of 2x/2, and 8x/2, so the legs of one of those triangles x and 4x. This makes the length of one side equal to
. Because all 4 sides are the same length, you multiply this value by 4, and get
, which is B.
60-3d + 20-6 =4d
74-3d =4d
-3d =4d -74
-7d = -74
D=74/7
If "a" and "b" are two values of x-coordinate, and "m" is the midpoint between them, it means the distance from one end to the midpoint is the same as the distance from the midpoint to the other end
... a-m = m-b
When we add m+b to this equation, we get
... a+b = 2m
Solving for m gives
... m = (a+b)/2
This applies to y-coordinates as well. So ...
... The midpoint between (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is ((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2)
_____
Jennifer had (x1, y1) = (-4, 10) and (x2, y2) = (-2, 6). So her calculation would be
... midpoint = ((-4-2)/2, (10+6)/2) = (-6/2, 16/2) = (-3, 8)
Brandon had (x1, y1) = (9, -4) and (x2, y2) = (-12, 8). So his calculation would be
... midpoint = ((9-12)/2, (-4+8)/2) = (-3/2, 4/2) = (-1.5, 2)
