Perhaps the easiest way to find the midpoint between two given points is to average their coordinates: add them up and divide by 2.
A) The midpoint C' of AB is
.. (A +B)/2 = ((0, 0) +(m, n))/2 = ((0 +m)/2, (0 +n)/2) = (m/2, n/2) = C'
The midpoint B' is
.. (A +C)/2 = ((0, 0) +(p, 0))/2 = (p/2, 0) = B'
The midpoint A' is
.. (B +C)/2 = ((m, n) +(p, 0))/2 = ((m+p)/2, n/2) = A'
B) The slope of the line between (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by
.. slope = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
Using the values for A and A', we have
.. slope = (n/2 -0)/((m+p)/2 -0) = n/(m+p)
C) We know the line goes through A = (0, 0), so we can write the point-slope form of the equation for AA' as
.. y -0 = (n/(m+p))*(x -0)
.. y = n*x/(m+p)
D) To show the point lies on the line, we can substitute its coordinates for x and y and see if we get something that looks true.
.. (x, y) = ((m+p)/3, n/3)
Putting these into our equation, we have
.. n/3 = n*((m+p)/3)/(m+p)
The expression on the right has factors of (m+p) that cancel*, so we end up with
.. n/3 = n/3 . . . . . . . true for any n
_____
* The only constraint is that (m+p) ≠ 0. Since m and p are both in the first quadrant, their sum must be non-zero and this constraint is satisfied.
The purpose of the exercise is to show that all three medians of a triangle intersect in a single point.
<span>x² + y² + 14x − 4y − 28 = 0
x² +14x +y² - 4y =28
x²+2*7x +7² -7² + y² - 2*2y +2² - 2² = 28
(x+7)² + (y-2)² -7²-2² =28
</span>(x+7)² + (y-2)²=28+49+4
(x+7)² + (y-2)² =81 is the answer.

Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the value of g(7), locate 7 on the x-axis. Follow the grid line upward until it meets the graph (blue line). At that point, follow the grid line to the left until it meets the y-axis. Read the value from the scale on the y-axis.
g(7) = 4

The answer is B. Fabiana has completed the same amount of the course as Samantha because 6/15=8/20. Both fractions reduce to 2/5. Therefore, they are equivalent.
