Answer:

a) a=-12

b) a=27

Step-by-step explanation:

a) parallel lines have = slopes SO

-3/2 = -3/2

-3/2 = 18/a

-3a/2 = 18

-3a = 18 * 2 = 36

a = -12

b) perpendicular lines have negative inverse slopes SO

- 3/2 ---> 2/3

2/3 = 18/a

2a/3 = 18

2a = 18 * 3 = 54

a = 54/2 = 27

Segment MN has endpoints at M(-5, 4) and N(7, -5). What is the midpoint of MN???? PLZ HELP
Paha777 [63]
Theres a formula to find the midpoint it’s... (x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2. You fill in the x’s and y’s to get (-5+7)/2 for x, which equals 1 and (4-5)/2 to get -0.5. (1, -0.5) is your answer
