What is the x-coordinate of the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are
(2, 3) and (-5, 5)?

(-3/4, 4)

Step-by-step explaination:

add 2 and -5 then divide them by two and get

-1/2

then add 3 and 5 divide them by two and get

11/2

But as long as you remember that you're averaging the two points' x- and y-values, you'll do fine. It won't matter which point you pick to be the "first" point you plug in. Just make sure that you're adding an x to an x, and a y to a y.

so therefore the answer is (-3/4, 4)

hello :

70y^8 + 30y^6 = 2 ( 35 y^8 + 15y^6)

the lenght is : 35 y^8

the width is : 15y^6
