Can you figure out the formula

Mathematics

If "a" and "b" are two values of x-coordinate, and "m" is the midpoint between them, it means the distance from one end to the midpoint is the same as the distance from the midpoint to the other end

... a-m = m-b

When we add m+b to this equation, we get

... a+b = 2m

Solving for m gives

... m = (a+b)/2

This applies to y-coordinates as well. So ...

... The midpoint between (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is ((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2)

_____

Jennifer had (x1, y1) = (-4, 10) and (x2, y2) = (-2, 6). So her calculation would be

... midpoint = ((-4-2)/2, (10+6)/2) = (-6/2, 16/2) = (-3, 8)

Brandon had (x1, y1) = (9, -4) and (x2, y2) = (-12, 8). So his calculation would be

... midpoint = ((9-12)/2, (-4+8)/2) = (-3/2, 4/2) = (-1.5, 2)

Question is down below thanks
Sidana [21]

Answer:

E

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear equation is in the form of: y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

m is the slope and it's given, which is -6

b is the y-intercept and it's given, which is 9

When we plug in to the form we get:

y=-6x+9

Functions A,B and C are linear functions. Some values of function A are shown in the table. Function B has y-intercept of (3,0)
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

In order of increasing slope:

B: y = 0

A: y = 2x-3

C: y = 3x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

(3,3), (5,7), and (6,9) are points on line A.

Use the coordinates of two of the points to find the slope of A.

Δy =7-9 = -2

Δx =5-6 = -1

Slope = Δy/Δx = 2

Equation for line of slope 2 that passes through (3,3):

y-3 = 2(x-3)

y = 2x-3

(3,0) and (5,0) are points on line B. They are horizontally aligned, so the equation for line B is y=0. Slope = 0.

You were given the equation for C: y = 3x+1. Slope = 3

In order of increasing slope:

B: y = 0

A: y = 2x-3

C: y = 3x+1
