Hi there, \n" ); document.write( "First find the midpoint between \n" ); document.write( "points(-6,2) and point(2,-2) \n" ); document.write( "Mid point formula: \n" ); document.write( "x1 + x2/2, y1 + y2/2 \n" ); document.write( "(-6 + 2)/2 , (2 +(-2))/2 \n" ); document.write( "= (-2,0) \n" ); document.write( "Gradient of median. \n" ); document.write( "(-2,5) and (-2,0) \n" ); document.write( "Formula: \n" ); document.write( "y2 - y1/x2 - x1 \n" ); document.write( "= (0 - 5)/-2 - (-2)) \n" ); document.write( "= -5/0 \n" ); document.write( "Zero gradient \n" ); document.write( "Median is x = -2 \n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps :-) \n" ); document.write( " |
