Let
 x: number of regular basketball
 y: number of long-distance basket
 We have the following system of equations:
 2x + 3y = 96
 x + y = 45
 Solving the system we have
 y = 45-x
 2x + 3 (45-x) = 96
 2x +135 -3x = 96
 -x = 96 -135
 x = 39
 Then,
 y = 45-x
 y = 45-39
 y = 6
 answer
 were made
 regular baskets = 39
 long-distance baskets = 6

Given: A(12,9), B(-2,-5) Find: M​
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

<h2>M = ( 5 , 2)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint M of two endpoints of a line segment can be found by using the formula

M = ( \frac{x1 + x2}{2}  , \:  \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

A(12,9), B(-2,-5)

The midpoint M is

M  =  (\frac{12 - 2}{2} , \:  \frac{9 - 5}{2} ) \\  = ( \frac{10}{2} , \:  \frac{4}{2} )

We have the final answer as

<h3>M = ( 5 , 2)</h3>

Hope this helps you
