What type of mountain forms when a oceanic plate and a continental plate meet

1 answer:

3 0

Answer: So, if an oceanic tectonic plate collides with a continental plate, the denser oceanic plate is likely to sink beneath the continental plate, creating a subduction zone. If, however, two continental plates (therefore of similar density) smack into one another, they, instead, lift up against one another.

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of HX

marta [7]

Answer:

$M(29, -12)$

Explanation:

Given:

$H(4\frac{1}{2}, -3\frac{1}{4}), X(2\frac{3}{4}, -2\frac{3}{4})$

Required:

Coordinates of the Midpoint of HX

Solution:

Midpoint (M) of HX, for $H(4\frac{1}{2}, -3\frac{1}{4}), X(2\frac{3}{4}, -2\frac{3}{4})$ is given as

$M(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2})$ .

Let $H(4\frac{1}{2}, -3\frac{1}{4}) = (x_1, y_1)$

$X(2\frac{3}{4}, -2\frac{3}{4}) = (x_2, y_2)$

Thus:

$M(\frac{4\frac{1}{2} + 2\frac{3}{4}}{2}, \frac{-3\frac{1}{4} + (-2\frac{3}{4})}{2})$

Convert to improper fractions

$M(\frac{\frac{9}{2} + \frac{11}{4}}{2}, \frac{-\frac{13}{4} + (-\frac{11}{4})}{2})$

$M(\frac{\frac{18 + 11}{2}}{2}, \frac{\frac{-13 - 11}{4}}{2})$

$M(\frac{\frac{29}{2}}{2}, \frac{\frac{-24}{4}}{2})$

$M(\frac{29}{2}*2, \frac{-24}{4}*2$

$M(29, -12)$
