Question
the coordinates of point t are (0,2). the midpoint of st is (1,-6) find the coordinates of point s.
Answer:
(10,-14)
Step-by-step explanation:
0 + x
--------- = 5 Multiply both sides by 2 ----> 0 + x = 10 or x = 10
2
2 + y
-------- = -8 Multiply both sides by 2 ----> 2 + y = -16 or y = -14
2
Therefore, the coordinates of point S should be at (10,-14)
You can do this on a calculator if you search up online radius and height measurement calculator.
Gradient =
Change in Y
———————
Change in X
Change in Y is 18 - 14 = 4
Change in X is -20 - 30 = -50
Therefore the gradient is 4/-50 which is then simplified to - (2/25)
