$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points }
\\\\
A(\stackrel{x_1}{-5}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})\qquad
B(\stackrel{x_2}{2a-7}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{b+7})
\qquad
\left(\cfrac{ x_2 + x_1}{2}~~~ ,~~~ \cfrac{ y_2 + y_1}{2} \right)
\\\\\\
\left( \cfrac{(2a-7)-5}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{(b+7)-1}{2} \right)=\stackrel{\stackrel{midpoint}{M}}{(6,3)}\implies \begin{cases}
\cfrac{(2a-7)-5}{2}=6\\[-0.5em]
\hrulefill\\
\cfrac{(b+7)-1}{2}=3\\[0.8em]
(b+7)-1=6\\
b+6=6\\
\boxed{b=0}
\end{cases}$

x = 95°

the polygon has 5 sides so you do n - 2 which is (number of sides - 2) this gives us 3. now multiply 3 times 180, this gives us 540. now add up all the sides that you know, 104, 117, 100, 124, this is 445 now subract 445 from 540 and that is what gives us 95°

Graph the relation. Is the relation a function? Why or why not? {(-5, 6), (-2, 3), (3, 2), (6, 4)}

Rainbow [258]

It is a function, because it has the shape of an x^2 function.
