The formula for midpoint is:

(\frac{x_{1} +x_{2} }{2 } , \frac{y_{1} +y_{2} }{2} )

Since the points are (5, 12) and (-4, 8) the equation would be...

(\frac{5 +(-4)} 2, \frac{12+8 }{2} )

(\frac{1}{2} , \frac{20}{2}

(.5, 10)

Hope this helped!

Can you give me the answers to all of them, thank you
JulsSmile [24]
Answers:
22.)D
23.)D

How?
Explaining number 22:
Well, let’s disprove each one of them.
A.) A is saying 6x=7. Even if we simplify that, it wouldn’t make any sense in what we are trying to do. That equation is equal to x=0.86(estimated to nearest tenth)

B.) B says that 6x=3. When we simplify this, we get x=0.5. That isn’t the number we want, so we know B isn’t right

C.) C is equivalent to 2x+2=6. Let’s simplify since it is multi-step.
2x+2=6
2x=6
x=3
Since we want x to be six, this wouldn’t be the answer either.

D.) D is saying 2x=12. When simplified, this becomes x=6. BINGO THERE IS OUR ANSWER




Explaining 23:
For this, I also used process of elimination.

Remember that x is equal to 2.5

A.)
x+3=5.5

2.5+3=5.5
5.5=5.5
That works.

B.)
2x=5
2(2.5)=5
5=5
That works.

C.)
2.5/2=1.25
1.25=1.25
That works

D.)
x-10=7.5
2.5-10=7.5
-7.5=7.5
THAT DOESNT WORK THERE IS OUR ANSWER

Which equation represents the line that is perpendicular to and passes through (-40,20)?
emmasim [6.3K]

The equation of the perpendicular line to the given line is: y = -5/4x - 30.

<h3>What is the Equation of Perpendicular Lines?</h3>

The slope values of two perpendicular lines are negative reciprocal of each other.

Given that the line is perpendicular to y = 4/5x+23, the slope of y = 4/5x+23 is 4/5. Negative reciprocal of 4/5 is -5/4.

Therefore, the line that is perpendicular to it would have a slope (m) of -5/4.

Plug in m = -5/4 and (x, y) = (-40, 20) into y = mx + b to find b:

20 = -5/4(-40) + b

20 = 50 + b

20 - 50 = b

b = -30

Substitute m = -5/4 and b = -30 into y = mx + b:

y = -5/4x - 30

The equation of the perpendicular line is: y = -5/4x - 30.

X + 4y = 16<br> -X + 3y = -2 ​
jeyben [28]

Answer:

(8, 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x + 4y = 16 → (1)

- x + 3y = - 2 → (2)

Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the x- term

0 + 7y = 14

7y = 14 ( divide both sides by 7 )

y = 2

Substitute y = 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (1)

x + 4(2) = 16

x + 8 = 16 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

x = 8

solution is (8, 2 )
