m = 3/7 and the midpoint is (1/2, 9/2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh then use the point slope formula and you are done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I seem to get the wrong answer every time I try to put in in a general formula

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lets try it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y-9/2=3/7(x-1/2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y-9/2=3/7x-3/14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[y-\frac{9}{2}=\frac{3}{7}(x-\frac{1}{2})\] \[y-\frac{9}{2}=\frac{3}{7}-\frac{3}{14}\] \[y=\frac{3}{7}x+\frac{30}{7}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes that is what I get but it is wrong, then I try to move the X over to the Y side and get -3/7x+y=30/7 and that is also wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@satellite73

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what form do you need to put it in?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[y=\frac{3}{7}x+\frac{30}{7}\] \[7y=3x+30\] \[3x-7y=-30\] maybe that one ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multiple 7 first thats what I was missign and yes that form is correct thank you
