To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, add the x coordinates and divide by 2
(-5+3)/2 = -2/2 = -1
To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, add the y coordinates and divide by 2
(3+-1)/2 = 2/2 = 1
(-1,1)
I think the answer would be A
Answer: 7
7 is the middle number when the number are out from least to greatest. Hope that helps!!
Inequalities and equations use similar steps to solve, but inequalities give a range of numbers that can represent the variable while an equation will give a direct answer.
Example:
4+5x=24
First you would subtract 4 or add the opposite of 4 from 24.
4+5x=24
+(-4) +(-4)
—————
5x=20
Then divide each side by 5 or multiply each side by the reciprocal of 5 to isolate the variable.
1/5*5x=20*1/5 (reciprocal)
X= 4
You would use the same steps in an inequality but end up with a different sign.
X/.5 > 6
(the > has a line under it but idk how to type that lol)
