what is the formula for calculating midpoint​

Answers

Answer 1
MIDPOINT

The intersection of a line segment's two endpoints is known as the midpoint. From the midpoint to one endpoint and the midpoint to the other endpoint, you will be given two equal distances.

The formula for calculating the midpoint is given below:

[tex] \boxed{ \bold{ \: \: M = \bigg(\dfrac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \dfrac{y_1 + y_2}{2}\bigg) \: \: }}[/tex]

For example, let us try solving this sample problem below using the midpoint formula:

Sample problem: A new transmission tower will be put up midway between two existing towers. On a map drawn on a coordinate plane, the coordinates of first existing tower are (-5, -3) and the coordinates of the second existing tower are (9, 13). What are the coordinates of the point where the new tower will be placed?

From inspection on the given problem:

[tex]\sf (x_1, y_1) = (-5, -3) [/tex][tex]\sf (x_2, y_2) = (9, 13) [/tex]

Substitute the given values into the midpoint formula and solve for M:

[tex]\sf M = \bigg(\dfrac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \dfrac{y_1 + y_2}{2}\bigg)[/tex]

[tex]\sf M = \bigg(\dfrac{-5 + 9}{2}, \dfrac{-3 + 13}{2}\bigg)[/tex]

[tex]\sf M = \bigg(\dfrac{4}{2}, \dfrac{10}{2}\bigg)[/tex]

[tex]\sf M = (2, 5)[/tex]

Therefore, the coordinates of the point are (2, 5).

[tex]\\[/tex]

Now, wasn't that easy? Try this other sample problem:

The endpoints of a segment are (-5, 2) and (9, 12), respectively. What are the coordinates of its midpoint?

From the sample problem above, you may solve it on your own to enhance your skill on calculating the midpoint.

Cheers!

(10). An article marked at 1,200 is sold at an 8% discount . Find the S.P of the article?

Answers

Answer:

$1,104

Step-by-step explanation:

If the discount is 8%, then you would need to subtract 8% (0.08) from 1, which would be 0.92. Now multiply $1,200 by 0.92 and you'll get $1,104.

Answer:[tex] \rightarrow [/tex] The S.P or sale price of the article is $1,104.

=================================================

Solution:

[tex] \rightarrow [/tex] 1,200 x (100% - 8%)

[tex] \rightarrow [/tex] = 1,200 x 0.92

[tex] \rightarrow [/tex] = 1,104

Two architects bid for a small government project, both
charging a flat fee added to an hourly rate. Amazing
Designs bids $250 plus $45 per hour, while Super Structures
bids $100 plus $60 per hour. At what point in time will the
two companies charge exactly the same amount?

Answers

Answer:

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the total number of hours

Amazing design total charge = 45x+250

super structures total charge = 60x+100

both companies charge the same amount when both equation equals

45x+250=60x+100

60x-45x=250-100

15x=150

x=10

therefore at 10 hours both companies will charge the same amount

An electronics store had a special sale on two different models of calculators. The more high-tech model sold for $33.02 and
the older model sold for $18.55. All together, 28 calculators were sold. Total sales came out to $736.45. Which system of
equations can be used to determine how many high-tech models were sold, x, and how many older models were sold, y?

Answers

Answer:

$736.45/$33.02 = 22.30 high tech

x($33.02) = $736.45

$736.45/$18.55 = 39.70 older models

y($18.55) = $736.45

You can wash a car 1.5 times as fast as your friend. Working together, the two of you can wash 1 car in 6 minutes. How long does it take each of you to wash the car when working alone? Leave your answer as a fraction!

Answers

If the two of you can wash 1 car in 6 minutes:

It will take you 10 minutes to wash the car alone

take your friend 15 minutes to wash the car alone

Let the duration you can work be represented by y

Let the duration your friend can work be represented by x

You can wash a car 1.5 times as fast as your friend

That is, y = 1.5x

Working together, the two of you can wash 1 car in 6 minutes

This can be represented by the equation

[tex]\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y} = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Substitute x = 1.5y into the equation above

[tex]\frac{1}{1.5y}+\frac{1}{y} = \frac{1}{6}\\\\\frac{1+1.5}{1.5y} = \frac{1}{6}\\\\\frac{2.5}{1.5y} = \frac{1}{6}\\\\1.5y=2.5(6)\\\\1.5y=15\\\\y=\frac{15}{1.5} \\\\y=10[/tex]

It will take you 10 minutes to wash the car alone

Substitute y = 10 into x = 1.5y

x  =  1.5(10)

x  =  15 minutes

It will take your friend 15 minutes to wash the car alone

Molly drew a map of her town. She graphed the point L(−1.75, −3) for the library. The ice cream shop is located at L′, a reflection of L across the x-axis. The fire station is located at L′′, a reflection of L′ across the y-axis. Identify the ordered pair that describes the location of the fire station. Express your answer using decimal notation.

(__,__)

Answers

Answer:

(1.75, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find L' first: We are reflecting L over the x axis, it means it stays on the same vertical (x=-1.75) and it's y changes sign, going to (-1,75,3).

This new point gets reflected again, over the y-axis. The horizontal coordinate (y=3) remains the same, and  the x coordinate changes sign, going to it's final destination (1,75, 3)

ANSWER:
(1.75, 3)

First, we have to flip (-1.75,-3) over the x-axis, which’ll leave us with (-1.75,3). Then we flip that point over the y-axis, which gives us (1.75, 3).
Just incase you have trouble doing reflections here’s the rules:

reflections over the x axis: (x,y)—>(x,-y)
reflections over the y-axis: (x,y)—>(-x,y)
reflections across y=x: (x,y)—>(y,x)
reflections across y=-x: (x,y)—>(-y,-x)

65.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, the two triangles are similar, since they're both right triangles, the angle in C are congruent, and the third has to be by difference. It means that the distance DC is proportional to 44 inches, on the proportion[tex]x:44 = 11.5:23.5 \rightarrow x= 44\frac{11.5}{23.5} = 21,5 in[/tex] To this we need to add the 44 inches traveled in the first part, to get a total of 65.5 in

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles are similar, so we can estimate that the ratio between them is 1:2 (23.5/11.5~~2). Now we have that 44/2 is 22 and 44+22 is 66. The closest answer to 66 is 65.5, which is A.

Nell has a piggy bank full of dimes and nickels. She empties the bank and counts the coins. She counts 30
coins in all, with a total value of $2.90. Nell says she has 14 dimes and 16 nickels.
(a) Write a system of linear equations to represent the number of coins that Nell had in her piggy bank
and the total value of the coins.
(b) Determine whether Nell could have counted the number of dimes and nickels correctly. Show all your
work to prove whether she counted the coins correctly.

Answers

[a] A dime is worth 10 cents (0.10 dollars) and a nickel is worth 5 cents (0.05 dollars). If there are 30 coins in all, we can set up a linear equation in standard form to look like this:

    30 - n = d

Since the total is 2.9, we can do the following:

    { 30 - n = d

    { .05n + .10d = 2.90

And our system is in bold

(where n is nickels and d is dimes, you could also use x and y if you wish)

[b] She could have counted the number of dimes and nickles correctly, but she did not. The number of nickles is 2 with there being 28 dimes.

Now, we will solve:

.05n + .10(30 - n) = 2.90

.05n + 3 - .1n = 2.9

3 - .05n = 2.9

3 = .05n + 2.90

.05n = 0.1

n = 2

(dimes is 30 - 2 = 28)

Have a nice day!
