The distance (d) between two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is given by the formula

d = √  ((X2-X1)2+(Y2-Y1)2)

d = √ (-400--800)2+(300-200)2

d = √ ((400)2+(100)2)

d = √ (160000+10000)

d = √ 170000

The distance between the points is 412.310562561766

The midpoint of two points is given by the formula

Midpoint= ((X1+X2)/2,(Y1+Y2)/2)

Find the x value of the midpoint

Xm=(X1+X2)/2

Xm=(-800+-400)/2=-600

Find the Y value of the midpoint

Ym=(Y1+Y2)/2

Ym=(200+300)/2=250

The midpoint is: (-600,250)

Graphing the two points, midpoint and distance

P1 (-800,200)

P2 (-400,300)

Midpoint (-600,250)

The length of the black line is the distance between the points (412.310562561766)

Hey there!

First, we need to find the slope. To do this, we subtract the y values and then divide this by the difference in the x values.

300-200/-400+800

100/400

1/4

Our slope is 1/4. Now we plug a point into the slope intercept equation and solve for b.

200=-800(1/4)+b

200=-200+b

b=400

Now, we have our equation.

y=1/4x+400

I hope this helps!

The equation of a line is -6x-2y=-18<br> What is the x-intercept of the line?
Fed [463]

 -6x - 2y = -18

-6x - 2(0) = -18

   -6x - 0 = -18

        -6x = -18

         -6      -6

           x = 3

hope this helps :)

The coordinate grid below shows triangle ABC and its image after translation, triangle A'B'C': Triangles ABC and A prime, B prim
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

y+6

Step-by-step explanation:

If we increase x then we need to do it with y by the same number.

We can not increase with different numbers.

Our rule of translation now is (x+6,y+6)

(x,y)=(x+6,y+6)

We have A(-6,2) then A'(0,8)

B(-5,5) then B'(1,11)
