Answer:

M = (2 , -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

M = midpoint

M= ((x1+x2)/2) , ((y1+y2)/2)

we have:

(-3, -1) and (7, -5)

x1 = -3 y1 = -1

x2 = 7 y2= -5

M= ((-3+7)/2) , ((-1-5)/2)

M = (4/2) , (-6/2)

M = (2 , -3)

Answer:

Slope is -3

Equation is y = -3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(0 , 2) and ( -1 , 5)

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m= (5 - 2)/(-1 -0)

m= 3/-1

m= -3

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = -3(x - 0)

y - 2 = -3x + 0

y = -3x + 2

Write the function notation for the transformation that would change f(x) to have a vertical

koban [17]

Function is $4 - \frac{f(x)}{8}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a function notation for the transformation that would change f(x) to have a vertical compression by a factor of $\frac{1}{8}$ , reflection over the x axis, up 6 and right 2.

Step 1:

Vertical compression by a factor $\frac{1}{8}$ , this means decreasing value of function by a factor of $\frac{1}{8}$ . Function becomes $\frac{f(x)}{8}$ .
