Totally Blanking On How Medians Work

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: FC = 16

===============================================

The three medians of this triangle are:

PFREQD

These segments go from one vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side.

The median we'll focus on is PF.

The point C is the centroid of the triangle. It's where the three medians intersect. It turns out that C divides PF such that CF is twice as long as PC

In other words,

CF = 2*PC

This means,

PF = PC+CF .... segment addition postulate

PF = PC+2*PC ... replace CF with 2*PC

PF = 3*PC .... combine like terms

So the median PF is three times the length of its portion PC

We're told that PF = 24

We can then find the following:

PF = 3*PC

24 = 3*PC

3*PC = 24

PC = 24/3

PC = 8

Then we double this to get the length of CF

CF = 2*PC

CF = 2*8

CF = 16

This is the same as FC because the order of the endpoints don't matter when it comes to naming a segment.

The final answer is 16.

Rotate the vector (5,1) 90°
clockwise about the origin.

Answers

Answer:

(-1, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

this is correct

The new coordinates of the vector (5,1) after rotating it 90° clockwise about the origin would be (-1,5).

What is a transformation?

A point is transformed when it is moved from where it was originally to a new location. Translation, rotation, reflection, and dilation are examples of different transformations.

Rotating a vector 90° clockwise in a 2D coordinate system can be accomplished by "flipping" the vector's x and y coordinates and then negating one of them.

In this case, the original x-coordinate is 5 and the y-coordinate is 1.

When we negate the x-coordinate and swap the positions of x and y, we get the new coordinates of (-1,5).

[tex]3n = 15[/tex]

Subtract both sides by 7

[tex]3n - 7 = 15 - 7[/tex]

[tex]3n - 7 = 8[/tex]

Multiply both sides by -10

Assuming the lines are evenly spaced between the integers, what number, in decimal notation, is represented by the plotted point?

Answers

Answer:

-1.4

Step-by-step explanation:

There are five increments between -2 and -1, so we find the difference between -2 and -1, which is 1. Divide 1 by five (increments)=.2

This means that every increment is worth 0.2.

If we see it from the left to right, from -2, there are 3 increments to the right, so multiply three by 0.2 which is 0.6, add 0.6 to -2, which is -1.4.

Approximately 4 out of 5 students in Mrs. Haynes 7th grade math class have cell phones, and there are 365 students in the 7th,

Calculate the number of students having a cell phone as shown below,

The number of students having a cell phone = 4 / 5 of 365

The number of students having a cell phone = 4 / 5 × 365

The number of students having a cell phone = 4 × 73

The number of students having a cell phone = 292

Thus, The number of students having a cell phone is 292.

On July 1, 2016, Killearn Company acquired 110,000 of the outstanding shares of Shaun Company for $14 per share. This acquisition gave Killearn a 25 percent ownership of Shaun and allowed Killearn to significantly influence the investee's decisions. As of July 1, 2016, the investee had assets with a book value of $5 million and liabilities of $620,000. At the time, Shaun held equipment appraised at $308,000 above book value; it was considered to have a seven-year remaining life with no salvage value. Shaun also held a copyright with a five-year remaining life on its books that was undervalued by $1,208,000. Any remaining excess cost was attributable to goodwill. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method. Killearn applies the equity method for its investment in Shaun. Shaun's policy is to declare and pay a $1 per share cash dividend every April 1 and October 1. Shaun's income, earned evenly throughout each year, was $591,000 in 2016, $634,400 in 2017, and $682,400 in 2018. In addition, Killearn sold inventory costing $98,400 to Shaun for $164,000 during 2017. Shaun resold $117,000 of this inventory during 2017 and the remaining $47,000 during 2018. Determine the equity income to be recognized by Killearn during each of these years. Compute Killearn's investment in Shaun Company's balance as of December 31, 2018.
