<span>M can have a coordinate of (-9) or (1)
There are potentially 3 different places for point M to go. It can be placed to the left of point A, between points A and B, and to the right of point B. Let's check those three possibilities.
1. Left of point A. This works if the distance between M and A is the same as the distance between A and B. So
distance between A and B = 6 - (-1.5) = 6 + 1.5 = 7.5
So the location for M would be
-1.5 - 7.5 = -9
So point M can have the value of -9.
2. Between A and B.
This would also work. Since we want a 1:2 ratio, place M one third of the way from A to B. Since we already know the distance between A and B to be 7.5, that means that we should add 7.5/3 = 2.5 to the value of A. So
-1.5 + 2.5 = 1
So point M can also have the value of 1.
3. To the right of point B
This won't work. Point B will always be closer to M than point A will be. So it's impossible to get a ratio of 1:2.</span>
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Use rise over run (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Plug in the points:
(6 + 6) / (2 + 4)
12/6
= 2
So, the rate of change is 2
I believe it is y= -x + 4
Midpoint formula : (x1 + x2) / 2, (y1 + y2) / 2
(2,6)...x1 = 2 and y1 = 6
(x,y)...x2 = x and y2 = y
sub
(2 + x) / 2, (6 + y) / 2 = (4,10)
(2 + x) / 2 = 4
2 + x = 4 * 2
2 + x = 8
x = 8 - 2
x = 6
(6 + y)/2 = 10
6 + y = 10 * 2
6 + y = 20
y = 20 - 6
y = 14
so ur other endpoint is (6,14) <==
