kykrilka [37]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

See solution below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the coordinate's of A and B be (1, 0) and (2,4) respectively

midpoint M (X, Y) = [(x1+x2/2, y1+y2/2)]

X = x1+x2/2

X = 1+2/2

X = 3/2

X = 1.5

Y = y1+y2/2

Y = 0+4/2

Y = 4/2

Y = 2

Hence the required midpoint (X, Y) is (1.5, 2)

Slope m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = 4-0/2-1

m = 4/1

m = 4

Hence the slope is 4

<em>Note that the coordinates are assumed but the same calculation can be employed for any other coordinates</em>

Answer: =12x+1

Step-by-step explanation: Hope this help :D

Let's simplify step-by-step.

25/5+6x(2)−4

=5+12x+−4

Combine Like Terms:

=5+12x+−4

=(12x)+(5+−4)

=12x+1

Renee says that y = mx can be rewritten in the form y = mx + b. Is she right? Explain why or why not
adelina 88 [10]
Answer - yes it can
Say you have y=2x with no y intercept (b)
You can still write it as y=2x +0 or assume the y intercept (b) is zero by writing it as y=2x

Determine, using the intermediate value theorem, if the function F(x)=x^3+2x-1 has a zero on the interval [0,1]. Justify your an
SSSSS [86.1K]

Plug x = 0 into the function

f(x) = x^3 + 2x - 1

f(0) = 0^3 + 2(0) - 1

f(0) = -1

Note how the result is negative. The actual number itself doesn't matter. All we care about is the sign of the result.

Repeat for x = 1

f(x) = x^3 + 2x - 1

f(1) = 1^3 + 2(1) - 1

f(1) = 2

This result is positive.

---------------------------

We found that f(0) = -1 and f(1) = 2. The first output -1 is negative while the second output 2 is positive. Going from negative to positive means that, at some point, we will hit y = 0. We might have multiple instances of this happening, or just one. We don't know for sure. The only thing we do know is that there is at least one root in this interval.

To actually find this root, you'll need to use a graphing calculator because the root is some complicated decimal value. Using a graphing calculator, you should find the root to be approximately 0.4533976515

Find the area of the triangle ABC with the coordinates of A(10, 15) B(15, 15) C(30, 9).
lions [1.4K]

Check the picture below.  so, that'd be the triangle's sides hmmm so let's use Heron's Area formula for it.

~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{\large distance between 2 points}}{d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}}~\hfill~ \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{10}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{15}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{15}) ~\hfill a=\sqrt{[ 15- 10]^2 + [ 15- 5]^2} \\\\\\ ~\hfill \boxed{a=\sqrt{125}} \\\\\\ (\stackrel{x_1}{15}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{15})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{30}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{9}) ~\hfill b=\sqrt{[ 30- 15]^2 + [ 9- 15]^2} \\\\\\ ~\hfill \boxed{b=\sqrt{261}}

(\stackrel{x_1}{30}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{9})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{10}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{5}) ~\hfill c=\sqrt{[ 10- 30]^2 + [ 5- 9]^2} \\\\\\ ~\hfill \boxed{c=\sqrt{416}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\qquad \textit{Heron's area formula} \\\\ A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}\qquad \begin{cases} s=\frac{a+b+c}{2}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ a=\sqrt{125}\\ b=\sqrt{261}\\ c=\sqrt{416}\\ s\approx 23.87 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A\approx\sqrt{23.87(23.87-\sqrt{125})(23.87-\sqrt{261})(23.87-\sqrt{416})}\implies \boxed{A\approx 90}
