Given two points (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂) the midpoint would be:
M=((x₁+x₂)/2 , (y₁+y₂)/2)
In this case, the points would be: (-8,-7) and (-7,-8); therefore:
M=((-8-7)/2 , (-7-8)/2)=(-15/2,-15/2)
Answer: C.) (-15/2 , -15,2)
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify: (-7x2 - 3x) - (4x2 - x) ... -11x2 – 2x ... 3x – 5 + 23x – 9 = 3x + 23x – 5 – 9 = 26x – 14 = 2(13x – 7) Answer: 2(13x – 7). 11 . ... 2x - 3 + 3 = - 9 + 3, (Adding 3 on both sides) 2x = -6 2x/2 = -6/2
2x/7 = 12/14
Multiply both sides of the equation by 7:
2x = 84/14
Simplify:
2x = 6
Divide both sides by 2 and your answer is....
x = 3
Slope of the line is -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given points are (1, -2) and (3, -5)
- Step 2: Equation for slope, m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
⇒ m = (-5 - -2)/(3 - 1) = -3/2
