please help i rly need it my math teacher gave me over 30 assignments and a project that are all due tomorrow today and i want to sewer slide

x= -14

Step-by-step explanation:

-14 subtracted by 2 is -16, since its absolute it means its positive, meaning its 16 greater than 14, I may be wrong so just to let you know. Depends on how the teacher wants it to be.

for finding the midpoint of any given 2 pair of points simply add the respective x coordinates with other x coordinate and the y coordinate with other y coordinate and divide them by 2

in your question it will be :

(3+1)/2 for the x coordinate of mid point i.e 2

[8+(-4)]/2 for the y coordinate of midpoint i.e 2

so coordinates of mid point of points (3,8) and (1,-4) will be (2,2)
