Answer:

D(-2, 5).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that M is the midpoint of CD and that C = (10, -5) and M = (4, 0).

And we want to determine the coordinates of D.

Recall that the midpoint is given by:

\displaystyle M = \left(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2} , \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}\right)

Let C(10, -5) be (<em>x</em>₁<em>, y</em>₁) and Point D be (<em>x</em>₂<em>, y</em>₂). The midpoint M is (4, 0). Hence:

\displaystyle (4, 0) = \left(\frac{10+x_2}{2} , \frac{-5+y_2}{2}\right)

This yields two equations:

\displaystyle \frac{x_2 + 10}{2} = 4\text{ and } \frac{y_2 - 5}{2} = 0

Solve for each:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}x_2 + 10 &= 8 \\ x_2 &= -2 \end{aligned}

And:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned} y_2 -5 &= 0 \\ y_2 &= 5\end{aligned}

In conclusion, Point<em> </em>D = (-2, 5).

The following stem-and-leaf plot represents the scores earned by Mr. Roberts's class on their most recent science test.
Alinara [238K]
First we need to count the total number scores. This can be done from the stem and leaf plot. The total number of scores are 19. The total number of values is odd, so the median position will be:

\frac{19+1}{2}=10th

Thus the 10th score is the median score for the class of Mr. Robert. The 10th score from the stem and leaf plot is 81.

Thus 81 is the median score of Mr. Robert's Class.
