Answer:

<u>Question (a)</u>

Midpoint of a line segment:

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

Given:

  • J = (-2, 2)
  • L = (4, 0)

\implies \textsf{midpoint of }JL=\left(\dfrac{-2+4}{2},\dfrac{2+0}{2}\right)=(1,1)

Given:

  • M = (3, 7)
  • K = (-1, -5)

\implies \textsf{midpoint of }MK=\left(\dfrac{3-1}{2},\dfrac{7-5}{2}\right)=(1, 1)

<u>Question (b)</u>

Find slopes (gradients) of JL and MK then compare.  If the product of the slopes of JL and MK equal -1, then JL and MK are perpendicular.

\textsf{slope }m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Given:

  • J = (-2, 2)
  • L = (4, 0)

\implies \textsf{slope of }JL=\dfrac{0-2}{4+2}=-\dfrac13

Given:

  • M = (3, 7)
  • K = (-1, -5)

\implies \textsf{slope of }MK=\dfrac{-5-7}{-1-3}=3

\textsf{slope of }JL \times \textsf{slope of }MK=-\dfrac13 \times3=-1

Hence segments JL and MK are perpendicular

For what value of w is4w = 2w - 8
Talja [164]

Answer:

w =-4

Step-by-step explanation:

4w = 2w - 8

Subtract 2w from each side

4w-2w = 2w-2w - 8

2w = -8

Divide by 2

2w/2 = -8/2

w = -4

New York State’s "Quick Draw" lottery moves right along. Players choose between one and ten numbers from the range 1 to 80; 20 w
Mrac [35]

Answer:

The Answer is 0,133484. The same number as (60/80)^7 or 0.75^7

Step-by-step explanation:

If the probability of an event occurring is <em>p</em>, then the probability of an event not occurring is <em>1-p</em>. Therefore if Lester plays one number, then the probability of that number not winning is 1-\frac{20}{80} or 1-0.25, which is \frac{60}{80} or 0.75

\\Two or more events are independent if the occurrence of one does not affect the probability of occurrence of the other. In Lester's game, the probability of a number winning or not winning does not affect the probability of the same number winning or not winning in the next game.

\\In order to find the probability of several events occurring in succession, we multiply the probabilities of the individual events.

\\Therefore if Lester plays one number seven times, the probability that all seven bets lose are (60/80)^7 or 0.75^7

What is down payment with regard to buying a house?
Jlenok [28]

In that regard, the lender views a down payment as proof you're invested in the home purchase, and that you're committed to buying the home and making all your mortgage payments. In financial terms, a home down payment is calculated as a percentage of the total home purchase
