Math Problem Statement

the ordered pairs are (3,0), (-4,-5), (5,7), (-2,1)

Solution

Given the ordered pairs (3,0)(3,0), (4,5)(-4,-5), (5,7)(5,7), and (2,1)(-2,1), we can analyze and derive various properties and relations between them. Here are a few things we can do with these points:

  1. Plotting the Points: We can plot these points on a Cartesian plane to visualize their positions.

  2. Distance Between Points: Calculate the distances between each pair of points using the distance formula: d=(x2x1)2+(y2y1)2d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

  3. Midpoints: Find the midpoint of each line segment joining two points using the midpoint formula: M=(x1+x22,y1+y22)M = \left( \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} \right)

  4. Slope of Line Segments: Calculate the slope of the line passing through each pair of points using the slope formula: m=y2y1x2x1m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

  5. Equation of Lines: Determine the equation of the line passing through each pair of points using the point-slope form of the equation of a line: yy1=m(xx1)y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

Detailed Analysis

  1. Distance Between Points

    • Between (3,0)(3,0) and (4,5)(-4,-5): d=(3(4))2+(0(5))2=(3+4)2+(0+5)2=72+52=49+25=74d = \sqrt{(3 - (-4))^2 + (0 - (-5))^2} = \sqrt{(3 + 4)^2 + (0 + 5)^2} = \sqrt{7^2 + 5^2} = \sqrt{49 + 25} = \sqrt{74}

    • Between (3,0)(3,0) and (5,7)(5,7): d=(53)2+(70)2=22+72=4+49=53d = \sqrt{(5 - 3)^2 + (7 - 0)^2} = \sqrt{2^2 + 7^2} = \sqrt{4 + 49} = \sqrt{53}

    • Between (3,0)(3,0) and (2,1)(-2,1): d=(3(2))2+(01)2=(3+2)2+(01)2=52+12=25+1=26d = \sqrt{(3 - (-2))^2 + (0 - 1)^2} = \sqrt{(3 + 2)^2 + (0 - 1)^2} = \sqrt{5^2 + 1^2} = \sqrt{25 + 1} = \sqrt{26}

    • And similarly for the other pairs.

  2. Midpoints

    • Between (3,0)(3,0) and (4,5)(-4,-5): M=(3+(4)2,0+(5)2)=(12,52)M = \left( \frac{3 + (-4)}{2}, \frac{0 + (-5)}{2} \right) = \left( \frac{-1}{2}, \frac{-5}{2} \right)

    • Between (3,0)(3,0) and (5,7)(5,7): M=(3+52,0+72)=(4,72)M = \left( \frac{3 + 5}{2}, \frac{0 + 7}{2} \right) = \left( 4, \frac{7}{2} \right)

    • And similarly for the other pairs.

  3. Slopes

    • Between (3,0)(3,0) and (4,5)(-4,-5): m=5043=57=57m = \frac{-5 - 0}{-4 - 3} = \frac{-5}{-7} = \frac{5}{7}

    • Between (3,0)(3,0) and (5,7)(5,7): m=7053=72m = \frac{7 - 0}{5 - 3} = \frac{7}{2}

    • And similarly for the other pairs.

  4. Equations of Lines

    • For the line through (3,0)(3,0) and (4,5)(-4,-5): y0=57(x3)y - 0 = \frac{5}{7}(x - 3) Simplifying this equation to slope-intercept form y=mx+by = mx + b, you get: y=57x157y = \frac{5}{7}x - \frac{15}{7}

    • For the line through (3,0)(3,0) and (5,7)(5,7): y0=72(x3)y - 0 = \frac{7}{2}(x - 3) Simplifying this equation to slope-intercept form y=mx+by = mx + b, you get: y=72x212y = \frac{7}{2}x - \frac{21}{2}

    • And similarly for the other pairs.
