Answer:

(4,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x coordinate of the midpoint is the sum of the x coordinates divided by 2

( 1+7)/2 = 8/2 = 4

The y coordinate of the midpoint is the sum of the y coordinates divided by 2

( 2+2)/2 = 4/2 = 2

The midpoint is (4,2)

A line segment has more then one midpoint true or false

Anika [276]

Answer:

false

Step-by-step explanation:

any line segment or distance has only one midpoint.

there is only one middle to everything.

how would that look like, if something had 2 middles ?

then they would not be a middle, and the middle between these 2 middles would then be the real middle ...

(2x+1)/2=(x+2)/5<br><br>if possible can you show me step by step how to get the answer <br>

Answer:

$\boxed{\bold{Decimal \ Form: \ x \ = \ -0.125}}$

$\boxed{\bold{Fraction \ Form:x=-\frac{1}{8}}}$

Step By Step Explanation:

Apply Fraction Cross Multiply: If $\bold{\frac{a}{b}=\frac{c}{d}:then\ a\cdot \:d=b\cdot \:c}$

$\bold{\left(2x+1\right)\cdot \:5=2\left(x+2\right)}$

$\bold{\left(2x+1\right)\cdot \:5: \ 10x+5}$

$\bold{2\left(x+2\right): \ 2x+4}$

$\bold{10x+5=2x+4}$

Subtract 4 From Both Sides

$\bold{10x+5-5=2x+4-5}$

Simplify

$\bold{10x=2x-1}$

Subtract 2x From Both Sides

$\bold{10x-2x=2x-1-2x}$

Simplify

$\bold{8x=-1}$

Divide Both Sides By 8

$\bold{\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{-1}{8}}$

Simplify

$\bold{x=-\frac{1}{8}}$

Turn Fraction Into Decimal

$\bold{-1 \ \div \ 8 \ = \ -0.125}$

$\bold{-0.125}$

A 96-ft high transmission tower casts a 72-ft long shadow. An anchor wire runs from the top of the tower to the tip of the shado

galben [10]

See attached picture and check solution below.
We are given with the following values:
A = length of transmission line = 96ft
B = length of shadow = 72 feet
C = distance of ladder to base of transmission line = 66 feet

Solve for angle created between the wire and tip of the shadow:
tan x = opposite/ adjacent
tan x = 96 feet / 72 feet
x = 53.13°

Solving for the height of the ladder:
tan x = Ladder length / (72-66)
tan 53.13° * (72-66) = ladder length
ladder length = 8 feet

The answer is letter "B" which is 8 feet.
