The two ordered pairs that the mid point is (4,-10) are (4,-20),(4,0) & (4,0),(4,-20).

Given the coordinates of mid point be (4,-10).

We are required to find the ordered pairs that the mid point is (4,-20).

Coordinates show positions of points or something else on a surface.

There are various combinations whose mid point is (4,-10).

First are (4,-20),(4,0).

Mid point =[(4+4)/2,(-20+0)/2]

=(4,-10)

Second are (4,0) , (4,-20)

Mid point=[(4+4)/2,(0-20)/2]

=(4,-10)

Third are (8,-20),(0,0)

Mid point=[(8+0)/2,(-20+0)/2]

=(4,-10)

Fourth are (0,-20),(8,0)

Mid point =[(0+8)/2,(-10+0)/2]

=(4,-10)

Hence the ordered pairs that the mid point is (4,-10) are (4,-20),(4,0) & (4,0),(4,-20)& (8,-20),(0,0)&(0,-20),(8,0)&(0,0),(8,-20).etc.

The minimum value of z is -38

The optimization equation is given as

z=−3x+5y

The constraints are given as:

x+y≥−2

3x−y≤2

x−y≥−4

Next, we plot the constraints on a graph and determine the points of intersections

See attachment for the graph

From the attached graph, the points of intersections are

(-9, -13) and (-10, -12)

So, we have:

(-9, -13)

(-10, -12)

Substitute these values in the objective function

z=−3x+5y

This gives

z= −3 * -9 +5 * -13 = -38

z= −3 * -10 +5 * -12 = -30

-38 is less than -30

Hence, the minimum value of z is -38

If we compare the given values then we can find that the database B is more likely to have smaller standard deviation.

Given that the values in database A are 0 from 100 and has mean of 50 and Database B has entries from 49 to 51 and also has mean of 50.

We are required to find the database whose standard deviation is lower.

Standard deviation measures the variation of values. It is calculated after finding mean. The square of a standard deviation is known as variance.

Database A has values from 0 to 100 and has mean of 50. Because the values are somewhat very larger than 50 and in database B has values from 49 to 51,there are more chances that the standard deviation of database B will have smaller value than from standard deviation of database A.

Hence if we compare the given values then we can find that the database B is more likely to have smaller standard deviation.

The dimensions (length and width) of the poster are 6 inches and 2 inches

Represent the length with x and the width with y

From the question, we have the following parameters

x = 5 + 0.5y

Area, A = 12

The area of a rectangle is represented as:

A = xy

Substitute the known values in the above equation

(5 + 0.5y) * y = 12

Expand the bracket

5y + 0.5y^2 = 12

Multiply through by 2

10y + y^2 = 24

Rewrite as:

y^2 + 10y - 24 = 0

Expand

y^2 + 12y - 2y - 24 = 0

Factorize the expression

(y - 2)(y + 12) = 0

Solve for y

y = 2 or y = -12

The dimension cannot be negative.

So, we have

y = 2

Substitute y = 2 in x = 5 + 0.5y

x = 5 + 0.5 * 2

Evaluate

x = 6

Answer:

(1,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitution:

x + 2y = 5  Solve for x

x = -2y + 5  Substitute -2y + 5 in for x in the second equation

4x - 12y = -20

4(-2y + 5) - 12y = -20  Distribute the 4

-8y + 20 - 12 y = -20  Combine the y term

-20y + 20 = -20  Subtract 20 from both sides

-20y = -40  Divide both sides by -20

y = 2

Plug y into either of the 2 original equations to get x.

x + 2y = 5

x + 2(2) = 5

x + 4 = 5

x = 1

The answer is (2,1).

Elimination:

x + 2y = 5      4x - 12y = -20.  We want to eliminate with the x or the y.  I am going to eliminate the x's that means that I have to multiply the first equation all the way through by -4

(-4)(x + 2y) = (5) (-4)  That makes the equivalent expression

-4x - 8y = -20  I will add that to 4x - 12y = -20

4x - 12y = -20

0x -20y = -40

-20y = -40

y = 2.  Plug 2 into either the 2 original equation to find x.  This time I will select the second original equation to find x.

4x -12y = -20

4x - 12(2) = -20

4x - 24 = -20

4x = 4

x = 1

She secures a 7/1 ARM at an initial interest rate of 3%. Her initial monthly payment is $2,635.03.

And we have to find the new monthly payment when its interest rate increased to the 4.925%.

So, For this purpose we know that the

An adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) is a loan with an interest rate that changes.

The amount in which she bought mortgage = 625,000

Interest rate = 3%

Initial amount = 2635.03

From this it clear that the

The amount she pays in 7 years = 2635.03*7

The amount she pays in 7 years = 18445.21

The left amount = 625,000 - 18445.21

The left amount = 606554

It means the rate of interest increased on the amount 606554$

So, According to the 4.925% interest the monthly payment will become

amount on interest rate 4.925% = 4.925% *606554/23 years

amount on interest rate 4.925% = $1292.

_________

2s = 6,

or, s = 3.

Substituting in (i), we get

r - s = 5,

or, r - 3 = 5,

or, r = 8.

Thus, r = 8, s = 3.

(b) 3p + 7q = 1 ...(i).

5p = 14q + 53,

or, 5p - 14q = 53 ...(ii).

2*(i) + (ii) gives:

6p + 14q = 2

5p - 14q = 53

____________

11p = 55,

or, p = 5.

Substituting in (i), we get:

3p + 7q = 1,

or, 3*5 + 7q = 1,

or, 7q = 1 - 15 = -14,

or, q = -14/7 = -2.

Thus, p = 5, q = -2.

4. Graphing lines:

(a) Slope of the line through (3, 4) and (-1, 3) is,

m = (4 - 3)/(3 - (-1)),

or, m = 1/4.

Thus, the slope of the line through (3, 4) and (-1, 3) is 1/4.

(b) The graph given: 3x - 4y = 7.

Representing in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, gives:

3x - 4y = 7,

or, 4y = 3x - 7,

or, y = (3/4)x + (-7/4).

Thus, the slope of the line 3x - 4y = 7 is 3/4.

(c) Slope of the line through (5, -2) and (-1, 6) is,

m = (6 - (-2))/(-1 - 5),

or, m = 8/(-6) = -4/3.

Substituting m = -4/3 in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, gives:

y = (-4/3)x + b.

Substituting y = 6, and x = -1 gives:

6 = (-4/3)(-1) + b,

or, b = 6 - 4/3 = 14/3.

Thus, the slope-intercept form of the line through (5, -2) and (-1, 6) is y = (-4/3)x + 14/3.

5. Introductory quadratics:

(a) 4x² = 81,

or, 4x² - 81 = 0,

or (2x)² - 9² = 0,

or, (2x + 9)(2x - 9) = 0.

Either, 2x + 9 = 0 ⇒ x = -9/2,

or, 2x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9/2.

Thus, the solutions to the equation 4x² = 81 are -9/2, and 9/2.

(b) x² + 8x + 12 = 0,

or, x² + 2x + 6x + 12 = 0,

or, x(x + 2) + 6(x + 2) = 0,

or, (x + 6)(x + 2) = 0.

Either, x + 6 = 0 ⇒ x = -6,

or, x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = -2.

Thus, the solutions to the equation x² + 8x + 12 are -6, and -2.

(c) x² - 3x - 88 = 0,

or, x² - 11x + 8x - 88 = 0,

or, x(x - 11) + 8(x - 11) = 0,

or, (x + 8)(x - 11) = 0.

Either, x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = -8,

or, x - 11 = 0 ⇒ x = 11.

Thus, the solutions to the equation x² - 3x - 88 are -8, and 11.

6. We assume the weight of one orange, one apple, and one banana to be x, y, and z units respectively.

Thus, we have:

3x + 2y + z = 15 ... (i)

5x + 7y + 2z = 44 ... (ii)

x + 3y + 5z = 26 ... (iii)

2(i) - (ii) gives:

6x + 4y + 2z = 30

5x + 7y + 2z = 44

(-)  (-)  (-)        (-)

______________

x - 3y = -14 ... (iv)

5(i) - (iii) gives:

15x + 10y + 5z = 75

x + 3y + 5z = 26

(-) (-) (-)          (-)

________________

14x + 7y = 49 ... (v)

14(iv) - (v) gives:

14x - 42y = -196

14x + 7y = 49

(-)    (-)     (-)

_____________

-49y = -245,

or, y = 5.

Substituting in (v), we get:

14x + 7y = 49,

or, 14x + 35 = 49,

or, x = 14/14 = 1.

Substituting x = 1 and y = 5 in (i), we get:

3x + 2y + z = 15,

or, 3 + 10 + z = 15,

or, z = 2.

Thus, the weight of an orange is 1 unit, the weight of an apple is 5 units, and the weight of a banana is 2 units.

7. 3/(1 - (2/x)) = 3x,

or, 3/((x - 2)/x) = 3x,

or, 3x/(x - 2) = 3x,

or, 3x = 3x(x - 2),

or, 3x = 3x² - 6x,

or, 3x² - 9x = 0,

or, 3x(x - 3) = 0.

Either, 3x = 0 ⇒ x = 0,

or, x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3.

Since we had a term 2/x, x cannot be 0.

Thus, x = 3.

Answer:

Perimeter o the rectangle = 16x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(long+ wide)

Then:

Perimeter = 2((6x-4)+(2x+3))

Perimeter = 2(6x+ 2x + 3 - 4)

Perimeter = 2(8x - 1)

Perimeter = 2*8x + 2*-1

Perimeter = 16x - 2
