Answer:

(7,-11)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

S = (1,5)

M = (4,-3)

Required

Determine the coordinates of T

Midpoint is calculated as:

M(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}(x_1 +x_2,y_1+y_2)

Where:

(x,y) = (4,-3)

(x_1,y_1) = (1,5)

Substitute these values in the above formula:

(4,-3) = \frac{1}{2}(1 + x_2,5+y_2)

Multiply through by 2

2 * (4,-3) = 2 * \frac{1}{2}(1 + x_2,5+y_2)

(8,-6) = (1 + x_2,5+y_2)

By direct comparison:

1 + x_2 = 8 and 5 + y_2 = -6

Solving for x2

1 + x_2 = 8

x_2 = 8 - 1

x_2 = 7

Solving for y2

5 + y_2 = -6

y_2 = -6 - 5

y_2 = -11

Hence, the coordinates of T is: (7,-11)

On the set of axes below, draw the graph of y=x^2-4x-1
never [62]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  axis of symmetry: x = 2

  see below for a graph

Step-by-step explanation:

You can complete the square to put the equation in vertex form.

  y = (x^2 -4x +4) -1 -4

  y = (x -2)^2 -5 . . . . . . vertex is (2, -5)

The equation of the axis of symmetry is the equation of the vertical line through the vertex:

  x = 2 . . . . . axis of symmetry

__

Points on the graph are easily found by using integer values on either side of x=2. Points on one side of the axis of symmetry are mirrored on the other side of it.

In the game of Keno, a player starts by selecting 20 numbers from the numbers 1 to 80. After the player makes his selections, 20
DiKsa [7]

The percentage of winning if 20 winning numbers are randomly selected from numbers 1 to 80 is 12.48%.

Given There are 80 numbers from which 20 numbers are selected randomly in a game of Keno by player and after selection of 20 winning numbers again 20 numbers are selected and player wins if the player has correctly selected 3,4,or 5 of the 20 winning numbers.

Probability is the chance of happening an event among all the events possible.

Probability of winning is calculated as under:

Probability=C(20,3)C(60,17)/C(80,20)

We have taken C(20,3) because player will win if 5 numbers are selected from 20 winning numbers.

We have taken C(60,17) because after selection of 20 numbers 60 numbers will left from 80 and after winning from 3 numbers 17  numbers left and from total 80, 20 numbers are taken.

=C(20,3)C(60,17)/C(80,20)

=(20!/3!17!  * 60!/17!43!)/80!/20!60!

=1140*387221678682300/35353161422121743200

=12.48%

Hence the probability of winning is 12.48%.

Sweets are sold loose or pre packed in 120 G bags. The 120 G bags are 1.49 pounds each By calculating the price per gram determi
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Complete question :

Sweets are sold loose, or pre-packed in 120g bags.The 120g bags are £1.49 each.The loose sweets are £0.89 for 100g.

By calculating the price per gram, determine which is better value.

Answer:

100 g bag

Step-by-step explanation:

For the 120g bag:

Price per gram :

Price / Numbe of gram

1.49 / 120 = 0.0124 gram per bag

For the 100 g bag :

0.89 / 100

= $0.0089per gram

Since $0.0089 is < $0.0124

Then the 100g bag is of better value
