Answer:

The coordinates are A(-1,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the midpoint between two points is equal to

M=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

In this problem we have

M(2,6)\\A(x_1,y_1)

B(x_2,y_2) ---> B(5,10)

substitute the given values

(2,6)=(\frac{x_1+5}{2},\frac{y_1+10}{2})

Solve for x_1

2=(x_1+5)/2\\4=x_1+5\\x_1=4-5=-1

Solve for y_1

6=(y_1+10)/2\\12=y_1+10\\y_1=12-10=2

therefore

The coordinates are A(-1,2)

All of these only require a single operation before you get x alone. for example:

x - 2 = 6
compared with
2x = 6

for the first one, you add two and get x = 8. for the second one, you divide by 2 and get x = 3. they're both a single step, as the name "one-step" equations tells you, and you only have to divide, multiply, add, or subtract one value.

What is the slope of the line whose equation is 2x-6y=0?
Lina20 [59]
Equation of a line is:

y=mx+C

------------------------

We're looking for m as m stands for gradient.

2x-6y=0 (Divide all terms by 2)

x-3y=0

3y=x

y=1/3x

y=1/3x+0

Therefore m=1/3, C=0.

Correct answer only plz thank you!
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

GI is made up of the segments GH and HI. In other words:

GI=GH+HI

We know that GH is 2 and GI is 7. Substitute:

7=2+HI

Subtract 2 from both sides:

HI=5

So, our answer is B.

And we're done!
