Answer:

2n+5 =3

n=-1

The number is -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the number

Twice the number

Plus 5

2n+5

is means equals

2n+5 =3

Now we want to solve

Subtract 5 from each side

2n+5-5 = 3-5

2n = -2

Divide each side by 2

2n/2 = -2/2

n = -1

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of a line segment with the given endpoints (14,-8), (12,-1)

Flauer [41]

Answer:

The coordinates of the midpoint of a line segment with the given endpoints (14,-8), (12,-1) are $\mathbf{(13,\frac{-9}{2})}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the coordinates of the midpoint of a line segment with the given endpoints (14,-8), (12,-1)

The midpoint of line segment can be found using formula:

$Midpoint=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$

We have $x_1=14, y_1=-8, x_2=12, y_2=-1$

Putting values and finding midpoint

$Midpoint=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})\\Midpoint=(\frac{14+12}{2},\frac{-8-1}{2})\\Midpoint=(\frac{26}{2},\frac{-9}{2})\\Midpoint=(13,\frac{-9}{2})$

So, the coordinates of the midpoint of a line segment with the given endpoints (14,-8), (12,-1) are $\mathbf{(13,\frac{-9}{2})}$
