Question

Indicate the equation of the given line in standard form.

The line with slope 9/7 and containing the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are (2, -3) and (-6, 5).

Answer 1

1. Find the midpoint of the segment
2. Plug the given slope and the midpoint into point-slope form which is:

Answer 2

\[y _{2}-y _{1}=m(x _{2}-x _{1})\]

Answer 3

Thanks! The midpoint is (-2,1) right? So plug that in how?

Answer 4

\[x _{1}=-2, y _{1}=1\]

Answer 5

Thanks!
