Answer:
(0,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The mid point of A(-2,2) and B(2,-4) is the coordinates of point P, which is (x,y)
Hence, the line AB = AP + PB.
At point AP: x = (-2+2)/2 = 0
also, point PB: y = (2 - 4)/2 = -1
Therefore, coordinates of point P = (0,-1)
The answer to your question is y = 4/3x + 1/3
Data
Point A = (2, 3)
Point B = (5, 7)
Process
1.- Calculate the slope
x1 = 2 y1 = 3
x2 = 5 y2 = 7
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
- Substitution
m = (7 - 3)/(5 - 2)
- Slope
m = 4/3
2.- Find the equation of the line
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 3 = 4/3(x - 2)
y - 3 = 4/3x - 8/3
y = 4/3x - 8/3 + 3
y = 4/3x - 8/3 + 9/3
y = 4/3x + 1/3
m=1
y2-y1/x2-x1
