Slope = y2-y1 / x2 - x1

= -8-2 / -10-5
= -10 / -15
= 2/3

Find the midpoint of A and B where A has coordinates (2, 4)<br> and B has coordinates (-3, -9).

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

(-0.5,-2.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x1 + x2) / 2 = x midpoint
(y1 + y2) / 2 = y midpoint

⇒ 2 + -3 = 5

⇒ 5 / 2 = -0.5

⇒ 4 + -9 = -5

⇒ -5 / 2 = -2.5

→ = (-0.5, -2.5)

Answer:

$\frac{180}{147}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify $(\frac{3}{-7} - \frac{11}{21} )$

$=> \frac{(-3 \times 3) - 11}{21}$

$=> \frac{-9 - 11}{21}$

$=> \frac{-20}{21}$

Find the additive inverse of $\frac{-20}{21}$ by using its property - <em>"Sum of a number & its additive inverse is always zero". </em>Assume that 'x' is an additive inverse of $\frac{-20}{21}$ .

$=> x + \frac{-20}{21} = 0$

$=> x = 0 - (-\frac{20}{21}) = \frac{20}{21}$

Simplify $(\frac{9}{5} \div \frac{7}{5} )$

$=> \frac{9}{5} \times \frac{1}{\frac{7}{5} }$

$=> \frac{9}{5} \times \frac{5}{7}$

$=> \frac{9}{7}$

Now, find the product of $\frac{9}{7}$ & $\frac{20}{21}$

$=> \frac{9}{7} \times \frac{20}{21}$

$=> \frac{180}{147}$
