=\left(-5,\:-\frac{5}{2}\right)

Step-by-step explanation:

\mathrm{Midpoint\:of\:}\left(x_1,\:y_1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right):\quad \left(\frac{x_2+x_1}{2},\:\:\frac{y_2+y_1}{2}\right)\\\\\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-10,\:2\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(0,\:-7\right)\\\\=\left(\frac{0-10}{2},\:\frac{-7+2}{2}\right)\\\\= (\frac{-10}{2} , \frac{-5}{2})\\ \\=\left(-5,\:-\frac{5}{2}\right)

Jan rode to her friend's house with a constant speed of 14 m/hr. How long will she take to
sammy [17]

Answer:

1.07 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

14 miles = 1 hour

15 miles = x hours

Equal these two together

14 mi/1hr = 15 mi/xhr

Cross multiply

14 mi × x hr = 1 hr × 15 mi

I will stop using the units for now so it won't be as confusing

14x = 15

Divide both sides by 14 to isolate the variable

14x ÷ 14 = 15 ÷ 14

x = 1.07... hours
