In the given figure we can determine the coordinate of point M from the graph, we get:
We can also determine the coordinates of point N as:
Now, to determine the length of segment MN, we need to subtract the x-coordinate of M from the coordinates of N, we get:
Subtracting the fractions we get:
Now, to obtain the length of AB we need to subtract the x-coordinate of A from the x-coordinate of B.
The coordinates of A are determined from the graph:
The coordinates of B are:
Therefore, the length of segment AB is:
Now we do the same procedure to determine the segment of CD. The coordinates of C are:
The coordinates of D are:
Therefore, CD is:
Now, we determine MN as half the sum of the bases. The bases are AB and CD, therefore:
Therefore, we have proven that the median of a trapezoid equals half the sum of its bases.
If 19 out of 28 renters keep a pet, there are renters who don't keep a pet.
Whenever you have a subset of some set, and you want to know which percentage of the set the subset represents, you simply have to compute
So, in your case, you're wondering what percentage of 28 does 9 represent. So, the formula becomes
