Answer:
Every number in the pattern is greater than the previous number.
Answer:
(3 7/8, -1 3/4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The midpoint is the average of the end point coordinates:
((5 1/2, -4 3/4) +(2 1/4, 1 1/4))/2
= (7 3/4, -3 1/2)/2 = (3 7/8, -1 3/4)
Since only one person can finish in first place, one in second, etc., the total number of placers is 12x11x10, or 1320 different ways the 12 racers can finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd....

M = 135/19 and n = -5/19
You have to give them like terms so that when you eliminate they cancel out and you can solve. The easiest way to do so is by multiplying the top equation by -4 and the bottom by 3.
