Disregard the sign. Find the mean (add the numbers, and divide by the amount of numbers there are)

2 + 12 = 14/2 = 7

Add 7 (if you are going by -2), if you are starting from 12, subtract 7

-2 + 7 = 5

5 is your midpoint.

hope this helps

The equation is: (Note: Let the two numbers be x and y)

(x + y)/2 = midpoint

hope this helps

What is the domain of the function graphed below?

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

x < 7

Step-by-step explanation:

the domain is the number range or interval of x the function is defined for to generate a y-value.

the graph shows that the y-values continue with x-values to the right up to but not including 7 (the empty dot says "excluding"). and with x- values to the left to negative infinity.

x=-1 is not a problem, because while for the left part of the function it is not included, but for the right part it is.

so, it is fully defined for all x < 7.

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

fifth option

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 2(x - 5) ≤ 6x + 18 ← distribute left side

- 2x + 10 ≤ 6x + 18 ( subtract 6x from both sides )

- 8x + 10 ≤ 18 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

- 8x ≤ 8

Divide both sides by - 8, reversing the sign as a result of dividing by a negative quantity, thus

x ≥ - 1

The midpoint of segment AB is (4, 2). The coordinates of point A are (2, 7). Find the coordinates of point B.

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

<h3>The option B) is correct</h3><h3>Therefore the coordinate of B $(x_2,y_2)$ is (6,-3)</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the midpoint of segment AB is (4, 2). The coordinates of point A is (2, 7).

<h3>To Find the coordinates of point B:</h3>

Let the coordinate of A be $(x_1,y_1)$ is (2,7) respectively
Let the coordinate of B be $(x_2,y_2)$
And Let M(x,y) be the mid point of line segment AB is (4,2) respectively
The mid-point formula is

Now substitute the coordinates int he above formula we get
$(4,2)=(\frac{2+x_2}{2},\frac{7+y_2}{2})$
Now equating we get

$4=\frac{2+x_2}{2}$ $2=\frac{7+y_2}{2}$

Multiply by 2 we get Multiply by 2 we get

$4(2)=2+x_2$ $2(2)=7+y_2$

$8=2+x_2$ $4=7+y_2$

Subtracting 2 on both

the sides Subtracting 7 on both the sides

$8-2=2+x_2-2$ $4-7=7+y_2-7$

$6=x_2$ $-3=y_2$

Rewritting the above equation Rewritting the equation

$x_2=6$ $y_2=-3$

<h3>Therefore the coordinate of B $(x_2,y_2)$ is (6,-3)</h3><h3>Therefore the option B) is correct.</h3>
