Calcilate the averages of the coordinates

(4,6) (8,10)

4+8=12 12/2=6 x=6

6+10=16 16/2=8 y=8 midpoint=(6,8)

To find the midpoint of a line segment, you just calculate the averages of the coordinates! The Midpoint Formula: The midpoint of two points, (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is the point M found by the following formula:
M= ([x^1+x^2]/2, [y^1+y^2]/2). I hope this helped!

Find the first term and the common ratio <br>third term =6 and seventh term= 96

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

First term a₁ = 3/2 and common ratio r = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the first term and common ratio while we are given third term = 6 and seventh term = 96

Since common ratio is required so, the sequence is geometric sequence

The formula used is: $a_n= a_1r^{n-1}$

We are given: third term = 6 i,e

$a_3=a_1r(3-1)\\6=a_1r^2----eq(1)$

Seventh term = 96

$a_7=a_1r(7-1)\\96=a_1r^6----eq(2)$

Dividing eq(2) and eq(3)

$\frac{96}{6}=\frac{a_1r^6}{a1r2}\\16=\frac{r^6}{r^2}\\16=r^{6-2}\\=> r^4=16\\Taking \ fourth \ root\\ r=2,-2,2i,-2i\\ \ We \ will \ consider \ only \ positive \ value \ of \ r \ i.e \ \textbf{ r= 2}$

So, Common Ratio r = 2

Finding First term using eq(1)

$a_3=a_1r^2\\6=a_1(2)^2\\6=a_1(4)\\a_1= \frac{6}{4}\\a_1= \frac{3}{2}$

So, First term a₁ = 3/2 and common ratio r = 2

What equation can I use to find how many fluid ounces are in 4 cups

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

1C=8Fl ( not how many are in 4 cups look in explanation)

Step-by-step explanation:

In 4 cups there 32FlOz. this is becuase you want to find how many floz are in 4 cups so you multiply the whole equation by 4. you get 4C = 32Fl or 4cups = 32 fluid ounces
