Answer:
x if -3is less than x is less than -1
5 is -1 is less than x is less than 1
Step-by-step explanation:
You find the slope of the line for the first piece when the x-values range from -3 to -1.
For the second piece, the line is y=5 because the line is horizontal.
To determine how much of the wall is blue we first need to find its area. The wall is a rectangle, then its area is the product of its height and length:

Hence, the area of the wall is 140 square ft. To determine how much of the wall is already painted we multiply this by 1/2, then:

Therefore, 70 square ft are blue.
Based on the calculations, the coordinates of the mid-point of BC are (1, 4).
<h3>How to determine coordinates of the mid-point of BC?</h3>
First of all, we would determine the initial y-coordinate by substituting the value of x into the equation of line that is given:
At the origin x₁ = 0, we have:
y = 2x + 1
y₁ = 2(0) + 1
y₁ = 2 + 1
y₁ = 3.
When x₂ = 2, we have:
y = 2x + 1
y₂ = 2(2) + 1
y₂ = 4 + 1
y₂ = 5.
In order to determine the midpoint of a line segment with two (2) coordinates or endpoints, we would add each point together and divide by two (2).
Midpoint on x-coordinate is given by:
Midpoint = (x₁ + x₂)/2
Midpoint = (0 + 2)/2
Midpoint = 2/2
Midpoint = 1.
Midpoint on y-coordinate is given by:
Midpoint = (y₁ + y₂)/2
Midpoint = (3 + 5)/2
Midpoint = 8/2
Midpoint = 4.
Therefore, the coordinates of the mid-point of BC are (1, 4).
