To solve this problem, we need to use the midpoint formula, where M = (x1+x2/2, y1+y2/2). To solve, we must plug in the given (x,y) values from our ordered pairs and then simplify, shown below:
(x1+x2/2, y1+y2/2)
( (16 + -6)/2, (5 + -9)/2 )
Now, we can begin to simplify by computing the addition in the numerators of both fractions.
(10/2, -4/2)
Next, we can finish the simplification process by dividing these fractions.
(5, -2)
Therefore, the midpoint of (16,5) and (-6,-9) is (5,-2).
Hope this helps!
Since he’s already at -15, if he writes a check for 7 then he’s subtracting more from his account.
So, -15-7=-22
Nguyen saves 15% of his income
<h3>How to determine the percentage?</h3>
The given parameters are:
Savings = $120
Income = $800
The percentage saved is calculated as:
Percentage = Savings/Income * 100%
This gives
Percentage = 120/800 * 100%
Evaluate
Percentage = 15%
Hence, Nguyen saves 15% of his income
