Answer:

Choice A

m= (-7/2, 3/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem,

lets remember the midpoint formula

our midpoint,

$\frac{x1+x2}{2}, \frac{y1+y2}{2}=m, where m is our midpoint$

first point is (-1,5)

sec point is (-6,-2)

$\frac{(-1-6)}{2}, \frac{5-2}{2}=m$

m= (-7/2, 3/2)

Answers for questions 11. And 12.

Sloan [31]

Answer:

11. odd, 12. slope = 2 and the line rises.

Step-by-step explanation:

11. To determine if the function is odd, even, neither, you have to plug in -x in the function and simplify.If you end up with the exact same function that you started with (that is, if f (–x) = f (x), so all of the signs are the same), then the function is even. If you end up with the exact opposite of what you started with (that is, if f (–x) = –f (x), so all of the signs are switched), then the function is odd. In all other cases, the function is "neither even nor odd".

12. y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

1-9/-2-2 = 2

Divide (x^2 - 5x - 6) by (x -6) with long division<br> show steps please!!

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

see below. Quotient is (x +1).

Step-by-step explanation:

The general process is identical to numerical long division. You find a quotient term, multiply that by the divisor and subtract the result from the dividend to make a new dividend.

For polynomial long division, the quotient term is the ratio of the highest-degree terms of the dividend and divisor, so is easy to calculate without the guesswork involved in numerical long division.

Given the points A (-1,2) and B (7, 14), find the coordinates of the point P on directed line segment AB that partitions AB in t

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

Now despite what you may believe, 1:3 is not 1/3 in this situation. In this case, it means "1 equal part to 3 equal parts", which is a total of 4 equal parts. In short, this question is to place point P 1/4 the distance from A to B.

Firstly, how far apart is -1 from 7 (the x-coordinates)? That would be 8 units. Multiply 1/4 by 8:

Next, how far apart is 2 from 8 (the y-coordinates)? That would be 6 units. Multiply 1/4 by 6:

Next, since from -1 to 7 you are increasing, add 2 to -1:

1 is your x-coordinate

Next, since from 2 to 8 you are increasing, add 3/2 to 2:

7/2 is your y-coordinate.

Putting it together, your answer is A. (1, 7/2)

PLEASE HELP!! I don't understand this

lesya [120]

5 and 3 would be alternate Interior angles. Or 4 and 6. Because they are in between line L and line M,making them interior and they are on opposite sides of the middle line, making them alternate.

Complete the equation: x^2 + 10x + _ = (_)^2

Korolek [52]

Answer:

(x + 5)²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 10x

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to x² + 10x

x² + 2(5)x + 25

Then

x² + 10x + 25 = (x + 5)²
