Answer:

<h2> Mid point : </h2><h2 /><h2> $( \frac{x_{1} +x_{2}}{2} ) , ( \frac{y_{1} +y_{2}}{2} )\\(\frac{4-2}{2}), (\frac{-8+4}{2})\\ (1,-2)$ </h2><h2>Distance</h2><h2> $\sqrt{(x_{2} -x_{1} )^{2}} + \sqrt{(y_{2} -y_{1} )^{2}}\\\sqrt{(-2 -4 )^{2}} + \sqrt{(4 -(-8) )^{2}}\\\\\sqrt{36}+\sqrt{144}\\\\ 6+12\\ 18$ </h2>

Draw a line representing the "rise" and a line representing the "run" of the line. State the slope of the line in simplest form.

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First choose two points on the line,

Let the points are A and B.

From point A to B we are moving downwards by (5 - 1 = 4 units)

Therefore, Rise = -4

Horizontal distance between A and B = 2 units

Therefore, Run = 2

Since, slope of a line = $\frac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}}$

Slope = $\frac{-4}{2}$

= -2

Sadie= 82
Buddy= 54
Divide by 2, 136/2=68, then rest 14 to one half, 68-14=54, next add the other half 14, 68+14=82.
There you have it, i hope it helps you
