Given two points (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂), the midpoint of the segment will be:
( (x₁+x₂) / 2 , (y₁+y₂)/2 ).
In this case:
J(-3,18)
T(7,-10)
The midpoint will be:
( (-3+7)/2 , (18-10)/2 )=(4/2 , 8/2)=(2, 4).
Answer: the midpoint of segment JT is (2,4)
Answer: 8.2x+7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y=-5x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
where m is the slope
y=-5x+b
to solve for b, which is the y intercept, plug in (1,-7)
-7=-5(1)+b
-7=-5+b
-2=b
y=-5x-2
