The formula of a distance between two points:

We have the points P(3, 5) and Q(7, 5). Substitute:

<h3>M(5, 5)</h3>

<h3>Answer:</h3><h3>Midpoint = (5, 5)</h3><h3>Distance = 4</h3>
On what you need help with
(-2x -1) - (x - 7)
distribute the negative through the second set of parenthesis
-2x - 1 - x + 7
- 3x + 6
