Respuesta :
Mid point is found by summation of x
Then divide by 2
And same for y
Since mid point for x is 8
So x+(-9) /2 = 8
X - 9 = 16
X=16+9
X= 25
Then divide by 2
And same for y
Since mid point for x is 8
So x+(-9) /2 = 8
X - 9 = 16
X=16+9
X= 25
Answer:
the value of [tex]x[/tex] is 25.
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
- The midpoint is between (x,6) and (-9,14).
- The midpoint is at (8,10).
Now, the formula of a midpoint is
[tex]M=(\frac{x_{1} +x_{2} }{2} ,\frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2} )[/tex]
Where [tex]M=(8,10)[/tex]
This means that
[tex]\frac{x_{1} +x_{2} }{2}=8\\ \frac{y_{1} +y_{2} }{2}=10[/tex]
Replacing each horizontal coordinate and solving for [tex]x[/tex]
[tex]\frac{x +(-9) }{2}=8\\x-9=16\\x=16+9\\x=25[/tex]
Therefore, the value of [tex]x[/tex] is 25.
