The midpoint of GH is (-2, 3), and that point satisfies the equation because

3 = -(-2) + 1
3 = 2 + 1
3 = 3

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If GH has a midpoint M(x, y) then we have to determine whether midpoint M lies on the given line y = -x + 1

Since coordinates of G and H are (-8, 1) and (4, 5) so coordinates of the midpoint M will be

x = $\frac{(-8+4)}{2}$ = -2

and y coordinates of point M will be

y = $\frac{(1+5)}{2}$ = 3

Therefore point M is (-2, 3).

Now we plug in the values of x and y in the given equation.

3 = -(-2) + 1

3 = 3

Hence it is proved that the midpoint M of segment GH will lie on the line y = -x + 1

Drag the cards to create a two-digit number that matches these rules. Note: Not all cards will be used 6 is one of the digits 20

Greeley [361]

Answer:

As i understand this:

We have cards with the values:

0, 1, 2 and 6.

We want to create a two digit number such that:

Not all the cards are used.

6 is one digit of our number.

When we round to the nearest ten, we get 20.

Now, first remember how rounding works.

If we have a number like ab, where a and b are single digits (a is in the tens place and b is in the units place), then:

if b is 5 or more, we round up

if b is less than 5, we round down.

Now in this case we want to have a digit equal 6, if we use this in the units place, then when rounding, we will round up.

Then the other digit can be 1, such that we use the cards:

1 and 6.

then our number is 16:

When rounding, 6 > 5, then we round up to 20.

So this number meets all the conditions.

Which hyperbola has one focus point in common with the hyperbola (y+11)^2/(15^2)-(x-7)^2/(8^2)=1

irina [24]

$\bf \textit{hyperbolas, vertical traverse axis }\\\\
\cfrac{(y-{{ k}})^2}{{{ a}}^2}-\cfrac{(x-{{ h}})^2}{{{ b}}^2}=1
\qquad 
\begin{cases}
center\ ({{ h}},{{ k}})\\
vertices\ ({{ h}}, {{ k}}\pm a)
\end{cases}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{(y+11)^2}{15^2}-\cfrac{(x-7)^2}{8^2}=1\implies \cfrac{(y-(-11))^2}{15^2}-\cfrac{(x-7)^2}{8^2}=1\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
c=\textit{distance from the center to either foci}\\\\
c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}\implies c=\sqrt{15^2+8^2}\implies \boxed{c=17}$

now, if you notice, the positive fraction, is the one with the "y" variable, and that simply means, the hyperbola traverse axis is over the y-axis, so it more or less looks like the picture below.

now, from the hyperbola form, we can see the center is at (7, -11), and that the "c" distance is 17.

so, from -11 over the y-axis, we move Up and Down 17 units to get the foci, which will put them at (7, -11-17) or (7, -28) and (7 , -11+17) or (7, 6)
