Answer:

Slope = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Step 1: Define general form of equation of line</em>

An equation of a straight line on two-dimensional plane could be represented in form of: y = Mx + b, with M is slope and b is y-intercept

<em>Step 2: Set up the system to solve for slope M of equation of line</em>

That equation passes 2 points, which are represented in form of (x, y), (3, 7) and (6, 8).

Substitute these values of x and y into the original equation in step 1:

7 = 3M + b

8 = 6M + b

<em>Step 3: Solve the system of equations in step 2 for M</em>

Subtract 1st equation from 2nd equation:

8 - 7 = 6M - 3M + b - b

Simplify both sides:

1 = 3M

Divide both sides by 3:

=> M = 1/3

Hope this helps!

Answer:

slope =  \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

(3 \:  \:  \:  ,\:  \:  \: 7) =  > (x1 \:  \:  \:  ,\:  \:  \: x2) \\ (6 \:  \:  \:  ,\:  \:  \: 8) =  > (y1 \:  \:  \:  \: , \:  \:  \: y2)

slope \\  =  \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2}  \\  =  \frac{7 - 8}{3 - 6}  \\  =  \frac{ - 1}{ - 3}  \\  =  \frac{1}{3}

hope this helps

A segment has an endpoint at (1,−2). The midpoint is at (−4,−2). What are the coordinates of the other endpoint?
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The other midpoint is located at coordinates (-9,-2) (Second option)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Midpoints</u>

If P(a,b) and Q(c,d) are points in \mathbb{R} ^2, the midpoint between them is the point exactly in the center of the line that joins P and Q. Its coordinates are given by

\displaystyle x_m=\frac{a+c}{2}

\displaystyle y_m=\frac{b+d}{2}

We are given one endpoint at P(1,-2) and the midpoint at M(-4,-2). The other endpoint must be at an equal distance from the midpoint as it is from P. We can see both given points have the same value of y=-2. This simplifies the calculations because we only need to deal with the x-coordinate.

The x-distance from P to M is 1-(-4)=5 units. This means the other endpoint must be 5 units to the left of M:

x (other endpoint)= - 4 - 5 = - 9

So the other midpoint is located at (-9,-2) (Second option)
