Given two points (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) the midpoint would be:
M=((x₁+x₂)/2 , (y₁+y₂)/2)
In this case, the points would be: (1,2) and (1,-5); therefore:
M=((1+1)/2 , (2-5)/2)=(2/2,-3/2)=(1, -3/2)
<span>Answer: B) (1,-3/2)</span>

The first step, factoring out the constant 10, is due to the Constant Multiple Rule:

The derivative of the natural exponential function is itself!
. Reversing this,

<span>–4 • (–6.2 + 5) = –4 • (-6.2) + (–4) • 5 it is the so called
</span><span>distributive property
so the answer is
</span><span>B.distributive property</span>
step 1
Find out the slope WX
W(2,-3) and X(-4,9)
m=(9+3)/(-4-2)
m=12/-6
m=-2
step 2
Find out the slope YZ
Y(5,y) and Z(-1,1)
m=(1-y)/(-1-5)
m=(1-y)/-6
m=(y-1)/6
step 3
Remember that
If two lines are perpendicular
then
their slopes are negative reciprocal
that means
(y-1)/6=1/2 -----> because the negative reciprocal of -2 is 1/2
solve for y
2y-2=6
2y=6+2
2y=8
<h2>y=4</h2>
