rearrange into the form y = mx + b
subtract 6x from both sides of the equation
7y = - 6x + 14
divide all terms by 7
y = - 
x + 2 → in slope- intercept form
The midpoints are (8,3) and (6.5,6).
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
Midpoint formula = ((x1+x2)/2 , (y1+y2)/2)
(x1,y1) = (5,2)
(x2,y2) = (11,4)
Midpoint = ((5+11)/2 , (2+4)/2)
⇒ ((16/2) , (6/2))
⇒ (8,3)
(x1,y1) = (3,8)
(x2,y2) = (10,4)
Midpoint = ((3+10)/2 , (8+4)/2)
⇒ ((13/2) , (12/2))
⇒ (6.5,6)
Answer: ? = -22.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Using a negative number to replace the ? turns the minus into a plus sign.
-21 - (-22.5) = 1.5 is the same as -21 + 22.5 = 1.5
