If the points (2,7),(-3,3) and (5,1) are the vertices of a triangle ,find the length of the median drawn through the first vertex.
Answer:
[tex]\sqrt{26}[/tex] unitsStep-by-step explanation:
The median is the line segment connecting the vertex with the midpoint of the opposite side.
The midpoint has coordinates:
x = (-3 + 5)/2 = 2/2 = 1y = (3 + 1)/2 = 4/2 = 2Use the distance formula to find the distance between points (2, 7) and (1, 2):
[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex][tex]d=\sqrt{(1- 2)^2+(2-7)^2} =\sqrt{1+25} =\sqrt{26}[/tex]Step-by-step explanation:
the formula for the length of a median based on the 3 side lengths is
m = sqrt(2AB² + 2AC² - BC²)/2
where BC is the side opposite of the indicated vertex.
let's say
A = (2, 7)
B = (-3, 3)
C = (5, 1)
AB² = (2 - -3)² + (7 - 3)² = 5² + 4² = 25 + 16 = 41
AC² = (2 - 5)² + (7 - 1)² = (-3)² + 6² = 9 + 36 = 45
BC² = (-3 - 5)² + (3 - 1)² = (-8)² + 2² = 64 + 4 = 68
m = sqrt(2×41 + 2×45 - 68)/2 = sqrt(82+90-68)/2 =
= sqrt(104)/2 = sqrt(104/4) = sqrt(26) =

FACTORIZE AND Split the middle term: 72 + b - b^2
Answer:
- (b - 9)(b + 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
72 + b - b² ← factor out - 1 from each term and rearrange into standard form
= - (b² - b - 72) ← factor the quadratic
Consider the factors of the constant term (- 72) which sum to give the coefficient of the b- term (- 1)
The factors are - 9 and + 8
Use these factors to split the b- term
b² - 9b + 8b - 72 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
b(b - 9) + 8(b - 9) ← factor out (b - 9) from each term
(b - 9)(b + 8)
Then
72 + b - b² = - (b - 9)(b + 8)
Last month, an investor's stock portfolio was worth $46,950. The value of the stock portfolio fell by $2,388.50 each week for 4 weeks. What is the value of the stock portfolio at the end of the 4 weeks?
Answer:
$37,396
Step-by-step explanation:
take 2388.5x4 since there are 4 weeks = $9554
then you subtrct since the portfolio fell.
So $46,950-9554 = $37,396

Using ruler and compasses only, construct a parallelogram KLMN, so that KL = 8 cm, LM = 6 cm and angle KLM = 135°.
The steps to construct a parallelogram using a ruler and a compass are;
1. Draw a starting line segment l linger than 8 cm.
2. Mark point K on the line segment.
3. Widen the compass to a radius of 8 cm using the ruler.
4. Place the compass at point K and with the 8 cm radius mark point L on the line l.
5. At point L construct a 45° angle as follows;
Draw arcs that intersect line l on both sides of point L.From each of the intersection points, draw arcs that intersect each other on on the upper area adjacent to line l.From the intersection point in the previous step, draw a line to point L to get a perpendicular line to line l.Draw arcs to intersect the perpendicular line and line l on the other side of point L from K.From the points the arc intersects the perpendicular line draw arcs of the same radius to intersect at a point X to the right of the perpendicular line.The above steps bisects the 90° angle of the perpendicular lines.
Join point X to point L with a straight line to form ∠XLM = 135° (90° + 45° = 135°)6. Adjust the radius of the compass to give an opening of 6 cm and from point L draw an arc to intersect XL at M.
7. At point M construct a line YM at 45° angle to the line l.
8. From point M draw an arc to intersect YM and label the point as point N.
9. Join point M and N to complete the construction of the parallelogram KLMN.

Find all rational polynomials p(x) = x3 + ax2 + bx + c such that a, b, c are
roots of the equation p(x)=0
Answer:
p(x) = x³ +0x² +0x +0p(x) = x³ +x² -x -1p(x) = x³ -x² -2xStep-by-step explanation:
If the roots of p(x) are a, b, c, then it factors as ...
p(x) = (x -a)(x -b)(x -c)
and the expanded form is ...
p(x) = x^3 -(a+b+c)x^2 +(ac +b(a+c))x -abc
The requirement that the coefficients match the roots means we have three equations in three unknowns:
a = -(a+b+c)
b = ac +b(a+c)
c = -abc
The attachment shows the solutions to these equations. The solutions are found by making the substitutions ...
b = xc = ya = -(x+y)/2This leaves us with two equations in two unknowns that can be graphed on a Cartesian plane. The graph of the second equation is a circle:
x(1 -a -y) -ay = 0 ⇒ (x +1)^2 +y^2 = 1
The graph of the first equation is the union of the line y=0 and two hyperbolas. The points of intersection between this graph and the circle are ...
(x, y) = (-2, 0), (-1, -1), (0, 0) ⇒ (a, b, c) = (1, -2, 0), (1, -1, -1), (0, 0, 0)
The three polynomials that correspond to these values are shown above and in the attachment.

The length of a rectangle is four times its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 50 m, find its length and width.
Answer:
20m
Step-by-step explanation:
let the length be x and the width be y
x = 4y
2x + 2y = 50
2(4y) + 2y = 50 ( since x = 4y )
8y + 2y = 50
10y = 50
y = 5m
x = 4y
x = 4(5)
x = 20

Answer:
Area = 867 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
You have a rectangle. This means opposite sides are equal. If you set these expressions equal to each other, you will get two equations with two unknowns, x and y. Next, solve the system of equations to find x and y. Then, use the values to find the length and width of the rectangle. Last, multiply length × width to find the area.

a statue of abraham lincoln casts a 9-foot shadow at the same time the white house casts 48-foot shadow . if the white house is 70 feet tall , how tall is the statue of abraham lincoln
Step-by-step explanation:
let's ignore the question, if the statue can cast an isolated shadow based on its location ...
2 objects and their shadows create 2 similar right-angled triangles.
that means all angles are the same, and the side lengths of one triangle correlate to the corresponding side lengths of the other triangle via the same factor.
so,
48 × f = 9
f = 9/48 = 3/16
therefore, the height of the statue is
70 × f = 70 × 3/16 = 210/16 = 13.125 ft
how do you simplify this equation?
Answer:
The answer is B --> [tex]\frac{x^{2} }{3x^{2} -1}[/tex]
How I got that:
These are really easy, you're simply looking for numbers that you can factor down. Like here:
I took:
[tex]\frac{4x^{2} }{12x^{2} -4}[/tex]
and saw that I could factor out 4 from the denominator:
[tex]\frac{4x^{2} }{4(3x^{2} -1)}[/tex]
and then I canceled out the common factor (4 because its on both sides):
[tex]\frac{x^{2} }{3x^{2} -1}[/tex]

Two forces X = 50N and Y = 60 N are acting on a wooden block and it moves to the left as
shown below in figure.
The force which causes motion is ?
Identify the vertical asymptotes of f(x) = quantity x plus 6 over quantity x squared minus 9x plus 18. X = â’6 and x = â’3 x = â’6 and x = 3 x = 6 and x = â’3 x = 6 and x = 3.
The vertical asymptotes of the function are 3 and 6
Given the function
[tex]\frac{x+6}{x^2-9x+18}[/tex]
The vertical asymptotes of the function occur at the point where the denominator is zero.
Equate the denominator to zero.
x^2 - 9x + 18 = 0
Factorize the quadratic expression:
x^2 - 3x - 6x + 18 =0
x(x-3)-6(x-3) = 0
(x-3)(x-6) = 0
x - 3 = 0 and x - 6 = 0
x = 3 and 6
Hence the vertical asymptotes of the function are 3 and 6
