To compare these numbers, you must first put them into one format. Since you have mixed numbers, you may have to find and use the LCD.
-2.5, 1/5, 10, -12/4, 18/5, 10 could be simplified somewhat immediately:
-2.5, 1/5, 10, -3, (3 3/5) This set of numbers is simple enough so that you could rearrange them in ascending order mentally:
-3, -2.5, 1/5, (3 3/5), 10
In this case the number of elements in this set is odd, so all you have to do is to select the MIDDLE element: 1/5.
The median is 1/5.
You MUST learn this procedure (arranging the set elements in ascending order and selecting the middle element) so that you can apply it yourself.
3.5 feet converted to inches is 42 inches. 42"-14"=28"
28" divided by 2 sides is 28/2 = 14" on either side if the poster remaining
point slope form of a line
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y-7 = -2 (x-1)
if you want it in slope intercept form
y-7 = -2x +2
add 7 to each side
y = -2x +9
