The roots are -1/2 of [ 1 plus or minus sqrt(5) ] .

When rounded: 0.61803 and -1.61803.

Their absolute values are the limits of the Fibonacci series,

or the so-called 'Golden Ratio'.

How matrix X1 X2 equals matrix X1 X2?

i think its pretty much the same thing because matrix X1 X2 IS ACTUALLY X1 X2


How do find the probability of distribution Let Y equals X1 - X2 plus 2x3 Find Pr Y1.5?

This question can only be answered if the probability distribution functions of X1, X2 and X3 are known. They are not and so the question cannot be answered.


If y equals -2 when x equals 4 find x when y equals 5?

x1:y1 = x2:y2 4:-2 = x2:5 x2 = (4*5)/-2 x2 = -10


M is the midpoint of pq verify that this is the midpoint by using the distance formula to show tha pm equals mq?

Let P(x1, y1), Q(x2, y2), and M(x3, y3).If M is the midpoint of PQ, then,(x3, y3) = [(x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2]We need to verify that,√[[(x1 + x2)/2 - x1]^2 + [(y1 + y2)/2 - y1]^2] = √[[x2 - (x1 + x2)/2]^2 + [y2 - (y1 + y2)/2]^2]]Let's work separately in both sides. Left side:√[[(x1 + x2)/2 - x1]^2 + [(y1 + y2)/2 - y1]^2]= √[[(x1/2 + x2/2)]^2 - (2)(x1)[(x1/2 + x2/2)) + x1^2] + [(y1/2 + y2/2)]^2 - (2)(y1)[(y1/2 + y2/2)] + y1^2]]= √[[(x1)^2]/4 + [(x1)(x2)]/2 + [(x2)^2]/4 - (x1)^2 - (x1)(x2) + (x1)^2 +[(y1)^2]/4 + [(y1)(y2)]/2 + [(y2)^2]/4 - (y1)^2 - (y1)(y2) + (y1)^2]]= √[[(x1)^2]/4 - [(x1)(x2)]/2 + [(x2)^2]/4 + [(y1)^2]/4 - [(y1)(y2)]/2 + [(y2)^2]/4]]Right side:√[[x2 - (x1 + x2)/2]^2 + [y2 - (y1 + y2)/2]^2]]= √[[(x2)^2 - (2)(x2)[(x1/2 + x2/2)] + [(x1/2 + x2/2)]^2 + [(y2)^2 - (2)(y2)[(y1/2 + y2/2)] + [(y1/2 + y2/2)]^2]]= √[[(x2)^2 - (x1)(x2) - (x2)^2 + [(x1)^2]/4 + [(x1)(x2)]/2 + [(x2)^2]/4 + (y2)^2 - (y1)[(y2) - (y2)^2 + [(y1)^2]/4) + [(y1)(y2)]/2 + [(y2)^2]/4]]= √[[(x1)^2]/4 - [(x1)(x2)]/2 + [(x2)^2]/4 + [(y1)^2]/4 - [(y1)(y2)]/2 + [(y2)^2]/4]]Since the left and right sides are equals, the identity is true. Thus, the length of PM equals the length of MQ. As the result, M is the midpoint of PQ


How do you do equations and graphs for slope?

The equation for the slope between the points A = (x1, y1) and B = (x2, y2) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1), provided x1 is different from x2. If x1 and x2 are the same then the slope is not defined.
