Answer:

The slope of the line is -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

(-7-(-19)) / (-2-1)

(12) / (-3)

= -4

Answer:

-I haven't done this, but I have copied and pasted from another question and answer from the user syed514:

Graphing is one way to do the problem.But sometimes, graphing it is hard to do.So here’s an algebraic method.

If M(m1, m2) is the midpoint of two points A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2),then m1 = (x1 + x2)/2 and m2 = (y1 + y2)/2.In other words, the x-coordinate of the midpointis the average of the x-coordinates of the two points,and the y-coordinate of the midpointis the average of the y-coordinates of the two points.

Let B have coordinates (x2, y2) in our problem.Then we have that 6 = (2 + x2)/2 and 8 = (3 + y2)/2.

Solving for the coordinates gives x2 = 10, y2 = 13
