4.3 #1:
ReplyDeleteline AB is negative, because the line leans towards the left, and when number on a number line go to the left, they're negative.
line CD is zero, because if a line is vertical, it's slope is zero.
line EF is positive, because it leans to the right, and when numbers on a number line go to the right, they're positive.
finally, line GH is undefined, because if a line is horizontal, it is undefined. :)

ReplyDeletethe midpoint of the segments is (3,4)
(12,-7) and (-6,15) are the coodernates. to find the midpoint, add both X's, add both Y's, and divide them both by 2.

4.3 #3
ReplyDeleteAnswer: -9, 3/2
To find the coordinates of the midpoint of a segment joining two points, you must find the average of the Xs and the Ys of the two points. The two points are (-17,-8) and (-1,11). First, find the average of X1 and X2. X1 is -17 and X2 is -1. The average of the Xs is -9. Now you must find the average of the two Ys. The two Ys are -8 and 11. The average of the two Ys is 3/2 or 1.5

Oh, Cilia- Period 3
ReplyDeletemidpoint of the segments (14,-7) and (-3,18). (x1,y1) and (x2,y2). You have to add x1 and x2 and then divide them by 2. 14+(-3) = 11. Since it will be 5.5 you just leave 11/2 as a fraction. then you do -7+18= 11.
ReplyDeleteso the midpoint is. (11/2, 11/2)

ReplyDeleteSketch a parallelogram. label the vertices A, B, C , and D. write the points down on the corresponding vertex A (0,0), etc. Draw the diagonals (A -> C and B -> D). Treat each diagonal as a line segment and find the average of the x and y's. You should get (6,4) for AC and BD.

ReplyDeleteFor this you just reverse the operations you would have done to find the midpoint. Simply find the difference between (12,-8) which is the given endpoint and the midpoint (3,18).
Once you have found the difference which turns out to be (-9,26).
Now you have all the information you need to find the other endpoint.

ReplyDeletecalculate the slope of the segment.
line segment MN is horizontal.
which means it has a slope of 0.
so 0 is the answer.

ReplyDeletethe slope 4 line segment EF is -4/1
it falls down 4 points which makes it -4 and then goes right 1

ReplyDeleteCalculate the slope of the vertical line segment OP.
you will find that is undefined because it will be 6 over 0.

4.3 per four #7
ReplyDelete3 coordinants would be(6,8)(9,12) (12,16).To find this you redraw the graph,find the rise over run or the slope(m).Then you apply this to your graph by starting at point (3,9)and then you add the slope which is 3/4 so you move over 3 to the right and then 4 down.The point you stop at should be (6,8)which is one of the possible answers and then you repeat from that point.
you can also got different point by starting from point (0,0) and instead of moving down 4 you go up 4 and instead of going to the right 3 you go the left 3. whick would give you points (-3,-4)(-6,-8)and(-9,-12)

ReplyDeleteFind the slope of line segment AB.
A (4,4) B (10,7)
First, find the differences between the two Ys: 7-4 = 3
Then, find the differences between the two Xs: 10 -4 = 6
Your slope is 3/6

ReplyDeleteFind the midpoint of

First, find the average of the Xs and the Ys.(adding the Xs then dividing by two. Same for the Ys.)
The midpoints for these coordinates are (11/2, 11/2)

ReplyDeletethe faster skater is the 1st one beause he is going 3/1 and the 2nd skater is 2/2
therefore the 1st skater s going faster
4.3 # 10
ReplyDeleteSolve for y; 3x+2y=12.
To get the answer, you must move everything except the 2y to the opposite side. Then, you isolate y by dividing by 2. Then you can simplify the 12-3x over 2 by getting the answer 6-3x over 2.

ReplyDeletehey its Josh Goldberg from period 3...Im doing 4.3 number 11.
ReplyDeleteoriginal problem is: 3y-18=2x
the answer is Y=2/3x+6
what you need to do is first move the 18 to the other side of the equal sign so you get 3y=2x+18
Then you need to divide everything by 3 so you get y=2/3x+6.

ReplyDeleteto find the midpoint of (12,-7) and (-1,11) you first find the average of the x's then the y's and thats midpoint
answer- (3,4)
4.3#9
ReplyDeleteAnswer: Yes it does matter if u subtract the x's and y's in order, Also, x has to be listed first. for an example:
(2,1), (1,2)= 1-2=-2
over 2-1=1
the answer would be m=-2 over 1. It wouldn't end out to be the same if thery weren't in order.
Acosta, Per. 4
ReplyDelete4.3 #9
Yes the order in which you subtract coordinates matters, because coordinates go (x,y) not (y,x). So you must subtract the x coordinates first then the y coordinates.
♫4.3♫ # OCH☺(8)
ReplyDeleteWell, the question states that pt. A is @ the ►origin(pt.0,0)◄ and pt. B is @ pt(9,6).
yes?
♦so, to find the two trisection points, divide the X and Y of pt.B by 3, giving you (3,2).
☻next, what i did was used the slope method of rise over run.
♪Crescendo from pt.A, giving you (3,2). From there, do the same, giving you (6,4)
╬In Summation, your Points should be: A(0,0)...1st trisection(3,2)...2nd trisection(6,4)... and B(9,6)
yeah.. i'm sure there's an easier way than making a graph, but for visual learners like myself, this seemed pretty elementary.. lessee if i get this right ☺..

ReplyDeleteline GH is undefined, because all horizontal lines have no slope.
line EF is positive because the slant of the line leans towards the right, as you go to the right on a number line you still have positive numbers.
line CD is 0 because it is vertial the slope is zero [ there is no slant ]
the slope of line AB is negative because the slant goes to the left, which means the numbers are negative on the left of the number line.

AB and BC
A(1,2)

The pair of lines will be perpendicular because ab and bc share the same point and the two lines will connect. When connected it'll form a X shape and all the angles are congruent

ReplyDeleteSkater 1 has a slope of 3/2 and skater 2 has a slope of 2/2. So skater 1 is going faster by 1x because he has the bigger slope.

ReplyDelete4.4 #2
ReplyDeleteyou have to determine whether line AB and line CD is a pair of parallel lines, perpendicular lines, or neither.
#2 )
first you find the slope of the 2 lines by
Y1-Y2 over X1-X2
A (1,2)
B (3,4)
calculate with formula
2-4 / 1-3 =
-2 / -2 =
1
so line AB slope = 1
next find line CD slope.
C (5,2)
D (8,3)
use formula
2-3 / 5-8 =
-1 / -3 =
1/3
so line CD slope = 1/3
parallel lines have the same slope.
CD slope = 1/3
AB slope = 1
not equal slopes, not parallel
perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes.
1/3 and 1 arent oppostie reciprocal so they arent perpendicular.
this determines that lines AB and CD are NEITHER.

You can use the formula :
to find the slope of these coordinate points
S (9, -3)
T (10, -2)
y2- y1
------ -2 -(-3)
x2 - x1 --------
10 - 9
The slope is 1/1 equivalent to 1
It rises one unit and runs one unit

You have to find the
differecnces b/t the two
Y's
7-4 = 3
find the differences b/t the
X's
10 -4 = 6

To find the slope of (16,0) and (12,8) is to Minus 8 minus 0 then 12 minus 16. That makes it 8/-4 and you can reduce that to -2.

i decided to use Y1-Y2 over X1-X2
i got (13,11)(14,7)
so it would be 11-7 over 13-14
and that equals 4 over -1
I am doing this now because when I got home from my game your web site wasn't working. Since there is 48 comments and only 43 problems I am making my own problem.
ReplyDeleteFind the slope of (5,2) (6,9)
To find the slope you have to do rise (Y) over run (X) you do
(y1-y2) over (x1-x2).
So (2-9) / (5/6) is -7/-1 which = 7
M=7
im going to do 4.3 #14
ReplyDeleteTo find the slope of the line segment EF.... you do rise over run.
The line segment goes 4 down and 1 over.
so therefore the slope is -4/1.

ReplyDeleteBecause the website was not working and i could not figure out how to post the comment so i'm doing my own problem.
Find the slope of (7,4) and (8/6)
use the equation rise over run so you do (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1.
So (6-4)/(8-7)= 2/1 which is 2.
