Perhaps the easiest way to find the midpoint between two given points is to average their coordinates: add them up and divide by 2.
A) The midpoint C' of AB is
.. (A +B)/2 = ((0, 0) +(m, n))/2 = ((0 +m)/2, (0 +n)/2) = (m/2, n/2) = C'
The midpoint B' is
.. (A +C)/2 = ((0, 0) +(p, 0))/2 = (p/2, 0) = B'
The midpoint A' is
.. (B +C)/2 = ((m, n) +(p, 0))/2 = ((m+p)/2, n/2) = A'
B) The slope of the line between (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by
.. slope = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
Using the values for A and A', we have
.. slope = (n/2 -0)/((m+p)/2 -0) = n/(m+p)
C) We know the line goes through A = (0, 0), so we can write the point-slope form of the equation for AA' as
.. y -0 = (n/(m+p))*(x -0)
.. y = n*x/(m+p)
D) To show the point lies on the line, we can substitute its coordinates for x and y and see if we get something that looks true.
.. (x, y) = ((m+p)/3, n/3)
Putting these into our equation, we have
.. n/3 = n*((m+p)/3)/(m+p)
The expression on the right has factors of (m+p) that cancel*, so we end up with
.. n/3 = n/3 . . . . . . . true for any n
_____
* The only constraint is that (m+p) ≠ 0. Since m and p are both in the first quadrant, their sum must be non-zero and this constraint is satisfied.
The purpose of the exercise is to show that all three medians of a triangle intersect in a single point.
D = m / V
<span>m = 1.26 g </span>
<span>V = s^3 = 4.1^3 = 68.921 cm^3 </span>
<span>so </span>
<span>D = 12.6 / 68.921 = 0.1828 g/cm^3 </span>
<span>and this corresponds to choice (a)

Hey babes!
I’m certainly positive that x is equal to 110 degrees.
I hope this helps!
The function modelled by the height (x) of the tree is as follows:
y - 180 = (368 - 180)/(7 - 3) (x - 3)
y - 180 = 47(x - 3) = 47x - 141
y = 47x - 141 + 180 = 47x + 39
Therefore, after 10 years, the tree will be 47(10) + 39 = 470 + 39 = 509 cm tall
While a digit in the thousands place has a value 1,000 times the value of the digit. So to compare you can do 10,000 / 1,000 = 10, which means that a digit in the ten thousand place values ten times what the same digit values is it is the thousand place.
