y - y1 = m (x - x1)

where m is the slope and (x1 , y1) is the point given

m = (y2-y1)\(x2-x1)

we have <span>(-5,-3) and (6,1)

so: m = (1- -3) / (6- -5) = (1+3)/(6+5) = 4/11

and the equation of the line is:
</span>y - y1 = m (x - x1)
y-1 = 4/11 (x-6)

simplify:

y = 4/11 x - 24/11 +1

$y= \frac{4}{11} x - \frac{13}{11}$

I hope that helps!

Simplify the equation

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

$\dfrac{16x^3-37x^2-16x+37}{x^2+2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

There aren't any factors that cancel (except 3x). The best you can do is multiply it out.

$\displaystyle\frac{\frac{3x^2-3}{x}}{\frac{3(x^2+2)}{16x^2-37x}}=\frac{3(x^2-1)}{x}\cdot\frac{16x^2-37x}{3(x^2+2)}\\\\=\frac{x(x^2-1)(16x-37)}{x(x^2+2)}=\frac{16x^3-37x^2-16x+37}{x^2+2}$

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment with endpoints A(-5, 6) and B(3, 2). You must show all work in order to rece

OLga [1]

Midpoint Formula = $M = ( \frac{ x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}) + ( \frac{ y_{1} + y_{2}} {2})$

We are given the coordinates: A(-5,6) and B(3,2)
Plug the values into the equation to get:
M = ((3 - 5)/2, (2 + 6)/2)
Now, just solve it down to get M = (-1,4).

The midpoint of the segment with endpoints A(-5,6) and B (3,2) is (-1,4). Hope this helps ALot and have a wonderful day!

Plot the image of D under a dilation about the origin (0,0) with a scale factor of 2

ElenaW [278]

(-6,-4)

If you dilate a point, (c,d) about (a,b) by a scale factor by k. You'll going to subtract each coordinates where the point will be dilated about (a,b) from the point (c,d) and then multiply them by k. This would be the formula if you want: (k(c -a), k(b -d))

Let's say F is the dilation of D about the origin or (0,0) then the x coordinate of F would be

$x = 2( - 3 - 0) \\ x = 2( - 3) \\ x = - 6$
