What is the midpoint of AB?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Citrus2011 [14]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

(-4, -\frac{1}{2})

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the line segment, with the end points AB

The coordinates of A are (-5, -4), and the coordinates of B are (-3, 3).

We want to find the midpoint of the line segment AB

The midpoint formula is given as (\frac{x_1+ x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2}), where (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2) are coordinates

We have two coordinates, which is what we need, but let's label their values to avoid any confusion:

x_1=-5\\y_1=-4\\x_2=-3\\y_2=3

Now substitute those values into the formula:

(\frac{x_1+ x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2})

(\frac{-5+ -3}{2}, \frac{-4+ 3}{2})

Now simplify the numerator and denominator

(\frac{-8}{2}, \frac{-1}{2})

Simplify again:

The midpoint is (-4, -\frac{1}{2})

Hope this helps!

Which graph is a correct representation of the function f(x)=3
Rama09 [41]
So f(x)=3
that means that whatever you input for x, you will always get 3
the graph is a horizontal line that goes through the point (0,3)
it is the same equation as y=3

Solve the proportion for x. 2/9=3/(x+2)
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

x as a fraction: 11\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Variable x cannot be equal to −2 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by 9(x+2), the least common multiple of 9,x+2.

2 ( x+ 2) = 9 x 3

Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by x + 2.

2x + 4 = 9 x 3

Multiply 9 and 3 to get 27.

2x + 4 = 27

Subtract 4 from both sides.

2x = 27 - 4

Subtract 4 from 27 to get 23.

2x = 23

Divide both sides by 2.

x = \frac{23}{2}

Simplify

11\frac{1}{2}

Hope it helps and have a great day! =D
