Let us say that:

x = age of brad

x + 2 = age of Alexandra

(x + 2) – 3 = age of Cecilia = x – 1

 

We are also given that:

x + x + 2 + x – 1 = 37

<span>
solving for x:</span>

3x + 1 = 37

3x = 36

x = 12 = age of brad

x + 2 = 14 = age of Alexandra

<span>x – 1 = 11 = age of cecilia</span>

The midpoint of segment AB is (-7, 10) and endpoint A is located at (3, -1). Find the other endpoint B. Show all work.
dusya [7]

Answer:

B(-17,21)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint of two points is the average of the x coordinates and the average of the y coordinates.

Given

A(3, -1)

and we let the other end point B be B(x,y)

and midpoint is (-7,10)

So, the average of 3 and x is -7, and

the average of -1 and y is 10

We can solve for x first:

\frac{3+x}{2}=-7\\3+x=2*-7\\3+x=-14\\x=-14-3\\x=-17

and now solving for y:

\frac{-1+y}{2}=10\\-1+y=2*10\\-1+y=20\\y=20+1\\y=21

So, the other point B is:

B(-17,21)

wariber [46]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use Permutation method,

nPr= \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}

Where n is the sample of size and r the combination considered, so

n=45\\r=4\\45P4= \frac{45!}{(45-4)!}\\45P4 = 3575880

There is 3575880 possibilities to make leadership structures in that committee
