Answer:

The midpoint of this line segment is (-1.5, -4.5).

Step-by-step explanation:

In finding the midpoint of a line segment we are actually averaging the x- and y-coordinates of the endpoints:

-2 -1

x-coordinate of midpoint = --------- = -3/2 = -1.5

-4 -5

y-coordinate of midpoint = ---------- = -4.5

The midpoint of this line segment is (-1.5, -4.5).

Answer:

x = 13/8

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt(8x-4) +8 = 11

Subtract 8 from each side

sqrt(8x-4) +8-8 = 11-8

sqrt(8x-4) =3

Square each side

(sqrt(8x-4))^2 =3^2

8x-4 = 9

Add 4 to each side

8x-4+4 = 9+4

8x = 13

Divide by 8

8x/8 = 13/8

x = 13/8

3 = –(–y + 6) a. –9 b. –3 c. 3 d. 9

3 = -(-y + 6)

First, simplify brackets. / Your problem should look like: 3 = y - 6
Second, add 6 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 3 + 6 = y
Third, simplify 3 + 6 to 9. / Your problem should look like: 9 = y
Fourth, switch sides. / Your problem should look like: y = 9

The answer is D) 9.
