Question

If the centroid of the triangle formed by (6,y) (x,-5) and (8,9) is at (5,2)

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is x =1, y = 2

Please check it

Step-by-step explanation:

By the given condition

( 6+x+8) / 3 = 5 & ( y - 5 + 9)/3 = 2

Now ( 6+x+8) / 3 = 5 gives

14+x = 15

x = 1

Again ( y - 5 + 9)/3 = 2 gives

y + 4 =6

y = 2
