Suppose M is the midpoint of Segment AB, P is the midpoint of Segment AM, and Q is the midpoint of segment PM.
If a and b are the coordinates of A and B, find the coordinates of M, P, and Q in terms of a and b.
The coordinates of M, P and Q in terms of a and b are [tex]M = \frac{1}{2}\cdot a + \frac{1}{2}\cdot b[/tex], [tex]P = \frac{3}{4}\cdot a + \frac{1}{4}\cdot b[/tex] and [tex]Q = \frac{1}{8}\cdot a - \frac{1}{8}\cdot b[/tex], respectively.
In this question we are going to use definitions of vectors and product of a vector by a scalar. Based on the information given on statement, we have the following vectorial formulas:
Location of M
[tex]\overrightarrow{AM} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \overrightarrow{AB}[/tex]
[tex]\vec M - \vec A = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \vec B - \frac{1}{2}\cdot \vec A[/tex]
[tex]\vec M = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \vec A +\frac{1}{2}\cdot \vec B[/tex]
[tex]M = \frac{1}{2}\cdot a + \frac{1}{2}\cdot b[/tex]
Location of P
[tex]\overrightarrow{AP} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \overrightarrow{AM}[/tex]
[tex]\vec P - \vec A = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \vec M - \frac{1}{2}\cdot \vec A[/tex]
[tex]\vec P = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \vec A +\frac{1}{2}\cdot \vec M[/tex]
[tex]\vec P = \frac{3}{4}\cdot \vec A + \frac{1}{4}\cdot \vec B[/tex]
[tex]P = \frac{3}{4}\cdot a + \frac{1}{4}\cdot b[/tex]
Location of Q
[tex]\overrightarrow{QM} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \overrightarrow{PM}[/tex]
[tex]\vec M - \vec Q = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \vec M - \frac{1}{2}\cdot \vec P[/tex]
[tex]\vec Q = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \vec P - \frac{1}{2}\cdot \vec M[/tex]
[tex]\vec Q = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(\frac{3}{4}\cdot \vec A + \frac{1}{4}\cdot \vec B\right) -\frac{1}{2}\cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\cdot \vec A + \frac{1}{2}\cdot \vec B\right)[/tex]
[tex]\vec Q = \frac{1}{8}\cdot \vec A -\frac{1}{8}\cdot \vec B[/tex]
[tex]Q = \frac{1}{8}\cdot a - \frac{1}{8}\cdot b[/tex]
The coordinates of M, P and Q in terms of a and b are [tex]M = \frac{1}{2}\cdot a + \frac{1}{2}\cdot b[/tex], [tex]P = \frac{3}{4}\cdot a + \frac{1}{4}\cdot b[/tex] and [tex]Q = \frac{1}{8}\cdot a - \frac{1}{8}\cdot b[/tex], respectively.

Question makes no sense to me, can someone help?
Answer:
-1 or -0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) is a common phrase you will see a lot in more advanced math.
Think of it as saying "Function of X". So, when you see f(-1), that means the function of x=-1.
So, when it's asking what value X is in f(-1), remember that that number is the x value.
I say COULD BE -0.5 if it means what y is when x = -1. This is if AND ONLY IF you have a check button to see if -1 is right or the wrong answer. I doubt it is, but I want you to be successful in your work.
I hope this helps :)

write a mixed number and an improper fraction for the model below
Answer:
2 and 3/4
11/4
Step-by-step explanation:
an improper fraction is any fraction with a numerator bigger then the denominator.
a mixed number is the "proper" version of an improper fraction.
the fraction 11/4 as a mixed number is 2 and 3/4.
to make an improper fraction a mixed number, find out how many times the denominator goes into the numerator. whatever you have left that didn't make 1 whole, turns into the fraction .

Select all the points of intersection between the graphs
of the functions f(x) = (x + 5)(x - 2) and
g(x) = (2x + 1)(x - 2).
Answer:
f(x)=(x+5)(x-2)
g(x)=(2x+1)(x-2).
x=10x+2
x=3x-2
x=12×+1
x=13
A function is defined as a relation between a set of inputs having one output each.
The point of intersection between the function f(x) and g(x) is x = 4.
What is a function?A function is defined as a relation between a set of inputs having one output each.
We have,
f(x) = ( x + 5 ) ( x - 2 )
g(x) = ( 2x + 1 ) ( x - 2 )
To find the points of intersection between the two functions we must equal the function.
f(x) = g(x)
( x + 5 ) ( x - 2 ) = ( 2x + 1 ) ( x - 2 )
( x - 2 ) gets canceled
x + 5 = 2x + 1
5 - 1 = 2x - x
4 = x
x = 4
This means that at x =4 the function f(x) and g(x) intersect.
we can see that at x = 4 both the functions have the same value.
f(x) = ( x + 5 ) ( x - 2 ) = ( 4 + 5 ) ( 4 - 2 ) = 9 x 2 = 18
g(x) = ( 2x + 1 ) ( x - 2 ) = ( 2 x 4 + 1 ) ( 4 - 2 ) = ( 8 + 1 ) ( 4 - 2 )
= 9 x 2
= 18
Thus the point of intersection between the function f(x) and g(x) is x = 4.

An elevator travels down from the top floor of a skyscraper. The graph below represents its height, in feet, over time in seconds. What does the slope of the line represent?
Answer:
So Y, which represents height, goes down depending on how far you are in time, which is X.
The slope of the graph represents the elevator's descent speed, calculated as 12 feet per second based on the points (1, 838) and (2, 826).
The Slope of the line in the graph represents the rate of change of height with respect to time, or the speed of the elevator's descent.
In this case, the slope can be calculated using the formula: slope = (change in height) / (change in time). We know that the elevator's height changes from 838 feet at 1 second to 826 feet at 2 seconds,
So, the change in height is : 838 - 826 = 12 feet, and the change in time is 2 - 1 = 1 second.
Therefore, the slope is 12 feet/second, this indicates that the elevator is descending at a speed of 12 feet per second.

Lin is paid $86 for 4 hours of work how much would she be paid at this rate for 9 hours of work?
Answer:
173.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 173.5
To solve this type of equation we first have to find the unit rate, in this case, the unit rate is dollars every hour, in order to find this we have to divide 86 by 4 as shown below
[tex]86/4=21.5[/tex]
Therefore the unit rate is 21.5$ every hour so in order to find how much money she was paid after 9 hours we have to multiply 21.5 by 9, which is shown below
[tex]9x21.5=173.5[/tex]
Thus, that is how much money Lin will be paid after 9 hours of work.
