On a baseball field the pitcher's mound is 60.5 ft away from home plate. Second base is 127.28 ft from home plate. Is the pitcher's mound the midpoint of home plate and second base? Explain your reasoning

Answer and Step-by-step explanation: Midpoint is the middle point in a segment line, i.e., it is at the center of a segment line.

On a baseball field, distance between home plate and second base is 127.28ft. The midpoint will be:

midpoint =

midpoint = 63.64ft

To be the midpoint, pitcher's mount must be 63.64ft away from the home plate. Since it's less than that, pitcher's mount is not the midpoint between home plate and second base.

x = ± 6i

step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = -36

take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(-36)

we know sqrt(ab) = sqrt(a) sqrt(b)

x = ±sqrt(36) sqrt(-1)

we know that sqrt (-1) = i

x = ± 6i
