Find the midpoint of the line segment whose endpoints are (-2, 5) and (4, -9).

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Solving for the midpoint can be done by looking for the average of each of the given x-coordinates and y-coordinates. The 2 obtained averages are the new x-coordinate and y-coordinate. This shown below:

Midpoint = ( (-2 + 4)/2 , (5 + -9)/2 )
Midpoint = (1,-2)

Therefore, the new midpoint is (1,-2)

-16+5n=-7(-6+8n)+3

what is the work for this ?? this is the like only one i cant get

Answers

-16 + 5n = -7(-6 + 8n) + 3   Given
-16 + 5n = 42 - 56n + 3   Distribute
-16 + 5n = 45 - 56n   Collect like terms
61n = 61   Add 56n to the left side and add 16 to the right side
n = 1   Divide 61 from both sides

The answer is n = 1. Remember that when you have a number beside two or more numbers in parentheses, you have to distribute, or multiply the number outside the parentheses by each number inside the parentheses.

Leena consumes 400 calories at breakfast and 350 calories at lunch. She consumes of her daily calories at dinner. If x represents the calories consumed at dinner, which statements describe the situation? Check all that apply.a. Leena consumed 1,500 calories at dinner.
b. The equation 2/3(x + 400 + 350) = x can be used to model the situation.
c. Leena consumed 500 calories at dinner.
d. The equation 2/3(x) = x(400 + 300) can be used to model the situation.
e. Leena consumed 1,000 calories at dinner.
f. The equation 2/3x(400 + 300) = x can be used to model the situation.

Answers

Only Option 'A' and 'B' are correct.

a) Leena consumed 1,500 calories at dinner.

b)  The equation 2/3(x + 400 + 350) = x can be used to model the situation.

What is an expression?

Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Since, we have given that

Number of calories she consumed at breakfast = 400

Number of calories she consumed at lunch = 350

Now, Let number of calories she consumed at dinner be x

According to question,

She consumes 2/3 of her daily calories at dinner,

So, it becomes,

1/3 x total = 400 + 350

total = 2250

so, Number of calories she consumed at dinner is given by

2/3 of total = x

2/3 x 2250 = x

x = 1500

And by option 'B' we get,

2/3 (x + 400 + 350) = x

2 (x + 750) = 3x

2x + 1500 = 3x

x = 1500

So, only Option 'A' and 'B' are correct.

One of the corners of a cube is sliced off. The resulting cross section will have a minimum of how many sides?

Answers

3, because you cut a corner, you cut through where 3 sides meet.

3 sides

Answer:

The resulting cross-section will have a minimum of three sides.

i.e. a triangle will be formed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because on cutting a cube along the corner we will obtain a triangle and thus a triangle has three sides.

Hence, the resulting cross section will have minimum of three sides.

( Also we can obtain many other figures on slicing a cube in different ways.

If we slice a cube parallel to the base we will obtain a square.

when we  will slice the cube to it's diagonal we will obtain a rectangle.

and in many other ways)
