2. RS = ST, Reason: Midpoint of a line (definition)

4. RS = XY, Reason: Transitive Property of congruence (if a=b, and b=c, a=c)

Step-by-step explanation:

A Midpoint divides a line exactly in half, due to the definition of a Midpoint. So, RS = ST, since they measure the same distance from the Midpoint. RS=XY because of the Transitive Property of Congruence. If ST = XY, and RS = ST, then RS = XY.

a) y = -3x +2

b) y = 1/2x -6

these 2 can be combined into one equation.

-3x +2 = .5x -6

8 = 3.5x

x = 8 / 3.5 = 2.2857142857

y = -3 * (8 / 3.5) +2

y = (-24 / 3.5) + 2

y = -4.8571428571
