Another word for median is middle. The median is the middle number of a list of numbers.
Answer:
8.6
Step-by-step explanation:
This uses the Pythagorean Theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a = 5
b = 7
c = ?
5^2 + 7^2 = c^2
25 + 49 = c^2
74 = c^2
sqrt(c^2) = sqrt(74)
c = 8.60 which when rounded = 8.6
First, set up the equation using the point-slope formula (y-y1)=m(x-x1).
y1=-4 x1=-3 m=-7/2
(y+4)=-7/2(x+3)
Second, distribute -7/2.
(y+4)=(-7/2)x - 21/2
Third, subtract 4 from both sides.
(y+4)=(-7/2)x - 21/2
-4 -4
______________
y=(-7/2)x - 29/2
