What is the slope the line that passes through the points:<br> (-6, 14), (2, -18)

Vesna [10]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Here's how to find the slope given any two points.

Subtract the y values.

14-(-18+-14+18=32

Subtract the x values.

-6-2=-8

And divide those.

32/-8=-4

The slope is -4.

Have a wonderful day! :D

One Endpoint is 9,18 and the midpoint is 14,16 what the other end point

Valentin [98]

$\bf \textit{middle point of 2 points }\\ \quad \\
\begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
% (a,b)
&({{ 9}}\quad ,&{{ 18}})\quad 
% (c,d)
&({{ x}}\quad ,&{{ y}})
\end{array}\qquad
% coordinates of midpoint 
\left(\cfrac{{{ x_2}} + {{ x_1}}}{2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{{{ y_2}} + {{ y_1}}}{2} \right)$

$\bf \left( \cfrac{x+9}{2}~,~\cfrac{y+18}{2} \right)=\stackrel{\textit{midpoint}}{(14,16)}\implies 
\begin{cases}
\cfrac{x+9}{2}=14\\\\
x+9=28\\
\boxed{x=19}\\
-------\\
\cfrac{y+18}{2}=16\\\\
y+18=32\\
\boxed{y=14}
\end{cases}$

Simplify. Remember to write the powers as a positive number.

(23+?) +19=23+(?+19 can any number complete the number sentence?

7nadin3 [17]

Yes, since the other two numbers on each side are the same, any number can fit well in this equation.
