The vertices of GHJ are G(-4, -7) H, (2,5) and J(10,-3). V is the midpoint of GH. W is the midpoint of HJ. Show that VW is parallel to GJ and that VW is one half of GJ.

Wants you to find the coordinates of the midpoints V and W, find the slopes of GJ
and VW (they should be the same) and show that VW=1/2 GJ

(Hint: You need to use the distance formula. Answers for the slopes should be given as fractions and answers from the distance formula can be given as square roots or as decimals rounded to the nearest hundredth.)

x = -2

y = 848

step-by-step explanation:

plug in the numbers

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
