The midpoint means your cutting it in half, so you want to take the sum of the endpoints and divide them by two. The equation for this is (x1 + x2 / 2 , y1 + y2 / 2).
(12 + -8 / 2 , 4 + 8 / 2)
(4/2 , 12/2)
(2,6) is your midpoint

What are the coordinates of the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints 2,5 and 4,-7
Phoenix [80]
<h3>Answer:   (3, -1)</h3>

===============================================

Explanation:

The midpoint formula is (x_m, y_m) = \left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)

This basically says to add the corresponding coordinates and divide by 2.

The given points (2,5) and (4,-7) have x coordinates of 2 and 4. They add to 2+4 = 6, and then that result cuts in half to 6/2 = 3. The x coordinate of the midpoint is 3.

The y coordinate of the midpoint is y = -1 since adding the y coordinates of the given points leads to 5+(-7) = -2 which cuts in half to -1.

So overall the midpoint is located at (3, -1)

URGERNT HELP PLEASE!!?
timofeeve [1]

    Four order pairs are ( 2, 5 ), ( 4, 8 ), ( 6, 11 ), ( 0, 2). All those I cited are whole numbers so that should help plot them, and from there get a ruler or straight edge and align all the dots to create the line for the equation. The equation you gave was the standard form which was created out of the formula to find a equation it's y = mx + b, there could be small variations made. How I know it's proportional is because all linear equations are. But if that's not enough I also know since there's a ratio or pattern that it follows and doesn't stray from. In more depth, porportional relationship is a ratio between y and x which is the same thing everytime shown if simplified.

Answer:

a

Step-by-step explanation:

We first require the fraction of English to Total

Total = 84 + 38 + 18 + 47 + 69 = 256 , then

\frac{69}{256} × 100% ≈ 27% ( nearest whole number )

Solve the system of equations by substitution
r-ruslan [8.4K]
We have y=2x and y=x+2
They both equal y, so substitute the first equation for y in the second equation.
2x=x+2
Let’s get x to one side. Let’s subtract x from both sides.
X=2
Since x=2, just plug in 2 for x.
2+2=4
So,
X=2
Y=4
