The ordered pairs would be (x-2, -y).
Translating a graph to the right subtracts the number of units from the x-coordinate.
Reflecting across the x-axis negates the y-coordinate.
Answer:
midpoint formula:
x1+x2/2 y1+y2/2
-4 + (-2)/2 which then simplifies to -6/2 and then to -3
2 + 2 /2 which then simplifies to 2
x= -3
y= 2
so (-3,2) is the coordinate point of the midpoint of this segment
“Square five times a number” with “a number” being x is the same as saying:
5x²
“three more than the number” is the same as saying:
3 + x
Therefore the sentence “When you square five times a number, you get three more than the number.” is the same as:
5x² = 3 + x
Hope this helps, have a great day! :)
