<u>ANSWER:</u>

Tornadoes can't be explained by the "movement of the tectonic plates".

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • Tornadoes are not caused because of the "movement of tectonic plates" but because of winds.
  • When winds develop into high pressure storms and these come in contact with the surface of the air as well as cumulonimbus clouds, tornadoes take place.
  • Tornadoes are fast moving air columns that move in a circular pattern and have such a high intensity that they destroy everything that comes in the way.
  • Mountains, earthquakes and volcanoes are all formed because of "movement of tectonic plates".

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)
