Given point A (3.8) and point B (-5,1). Find the following: a) The coordinates of the midpoint of segment AB. Write your answer in this form: (x, y) (
b) Using the distance formula, find the length of segment AB. Round to the nearest hundredth.
c) Find the slope of segment AB. (if your answer is a fraction, use the "/" symbol)

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

x - 3

discussion:

x^2 - 9 = (x-3) (x+3)   so

(x^2-9)/ (x + 3) = x-3

you,

mrb

the answer is:

the answer is:

to solve the problem, we need to remember the quotient of power property, it's defined by the following relation:

if we have a quotienf of powers that have the same base, we need to keep the same base and subtract the exponent of the denominator power to the exponent of the numerator power.

so, we are given the expression:

then, calculating we have:

hence, the answer is:

have a nice day!
