For x = 7 + (-1) = 6 -> 6/2 = 3
For y = -5 + (-2) = -7 -> -7/2 = -3.5
Midpoint(3, 3.5)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the coordinates of P are (0, 1), this makes P the y-intercept of that line. The y-intercept exists where x = 0. And in the coordinate (0, 1), x does in fact equal 0.
Since the one coordinate given in Q is (?, 0), this means that Q is the x-intercept of the line. The x-intercept exists where y = 0. And in the coordinate (?, 0), y does in fact equal 0. So in order to solve for the x coordinate of Q, we plug in a 0 for y and solve for x:
3(0) - 4x = 12 and
-4x = 12 so
x = -3
