Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle = x

As length is 5 inches longer than width, we have to add 5 to width

Length = x + 5

Perimeter of ractangle = 56 in

2* (length + width) = 56

2*( x + 5 + x) = 56

2* (2x + 5)    = 56

Use distributive property: a*(b +c) =(a*b) + (a * c)

2*2x + 2*5   = 56

4x  + 10 = 56

Subtract 10 from both sides

4x = 56- 10

4x = 46

Divide both sides by 4

x = 46/4

x = 11.5

Width = 11.5 in

length = 11.5 + 5

            = 16.5 in

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment with endpoints A(-5, 6) and B(3, 2). You must show all work in order to rece
OLga [1]
Midpoint Formula = M = ( \frac{ x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}) + ( \frac{ y_{1} + y_{2}} {2})

We are given the coordinates: A(-5,6) and B(3,2)
Plug the values into the equation to get:
M = ((3 - 5)/2, (2 + 6)/2)
Now, just solve it down to get M = (-1,4).

The midpoint of the segment with endpoints A(-5,6) and B (3,2) is (-1,4). Hope this helps ALot and have a wonderful day!
