Answer:

The x-coordinate of another point is zero

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope between the two given points

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

we have

(-10,1),(5,-5)

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{-5-1}{5+10}

m=\frac{-6}{15}

Simplify

m=-\frac{2}{5}

step 2

Find the x-coordinate of another point

we have

(x,-3)

we know that

If the other point is on the line, then the slope between the other point and any of the other two points must be the same

so

Find the slope between the points

(x,-3),(5,-5)

Remember that

m=-\frac{2}{5}

substitute in the formula

-\frac{2}{5}=\frac{-5+3}{5-x}

-\frac{2}{5}=-\frac{2}{5-x}

the denominators must be the same

5=5-x

x=0

therefore

The x-coordinate of another point is zero

Not quite sure. Is this correct?

Answer:

No, that answer is not correct. If you split the figure in half you have one line of symmetry. I think that the figure only has one line of symmetry.
