Question 1050493: 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 by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! ( 2, -3 ) and ( -6,5 )
and
--------------------------
The midpoint is ( -2,1 )
Use the general point-slope formula
Multiply both sides by
---------------------
check answer
Does the line go through ( -2,1 ) ?
OK
