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: (-8,-7) and (-7,-8); therefore:
M=((-8-7)/2 , (-7-8)/2)=(-15/2,-15/2)

Answer: C.) (-15/2 , -15,2)

A regular pentagon with a perimeter of 21 inches is dilated by a scale factor of

levacccp [35]

<h3>Answer: 35 inches</h3>

Each side of the pentagon is multiplied by 5/3 to get the length of each new side, so the perimeter is multiplied by 5/3 to get the new perimeter.

New perimeter = (scale factor)*(old perimeter)

New perimeter = (5/3)*(old perimeter)

New Perimeter = (5/3)*(21)

New Perimeter = (5/3)*(21/1)

New Perimeter = (5*21)/(3*1)

New Perimeter = 105/3

New Perimeter = 35 inches

Please help!<br><br> Find the equation of this line.

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

y = 1/3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope - Intercept Form = y = mx + b

y - intercept = b = 2 (point of intersection of the y-axis)

m = slope

Slope = Change in Y/Change In X

You can see that as the graph goes up by 1, it goes to the right 3, so slope = 1/3

Equation : y = mx + b

Equation : y = 1/3x + 2
