Given: k= midpoint
hk=x+6
hj=4x-6
Remember midpoint cuts the segment hj in equal parts that means hk=kj and hk+kj=hj
hk+hk=hj
2hk=hj
2hk=hj
2 (x+6)=(4x-6)
2x+12=4x-6
2x-2x+12=4x-2x-6
12=2x-6
12+6=2x-6+6
18=2x
18/2=2x/2
9=x
hk=kj=x+6=(9)+6=15
kj=15
Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
The first step is to find the slope using the provided coordinates (-2, 6) and (2, 14). We can do that using the y1 - y2 / x1 - x2, like so:
6 - 14 / -2 - 2
-8 / -4
2
The slope is two, so we immediately know the answer is either A or B.
Now, plot the two points on graphing paper and determine where the line intersects the y-axis to find the y-intercept...
My graph shows the line intersecting the y-axis at 10, therefore the correct answer is:
y = 2x + 10
A is the answer, I think.
