Write a c program to calculate and display the coordinates of midpoint - m of a linesegment between two given points - say a and b, the slope of the line - s and the distance b/wthe points a and b given by d. your program should prompt the user to enter floating pointvalues for x and y coordinates for the two points - a (x1, y1) and b (x2, y2). then it calculatesthe floating point coordinates of the midpoint - m (xm, ym) using the formula -xm

//Program in C.

// header file

#include <stdio.h>

#include <math.h>

// main function

int main(void) {

   // variables

float x1,y1,x2,y2;

float s,xm,ym,d;

// ask to enter x coordinate of A

printf("Enter coordinate (x) of point A:");

// read x1

scanf("%f",&x1);

// ask to enter y coordinate of A

printf("Enter coordinate (y)  of point A:");

// read y1

scanf("%f",&y1);

// ask to enter x coordinate of B

printf("Enter coordinate (x) of point B:");

//read x2

scanf("%f",&x2);

// ask to enter y coordinate of B

printf("Enter coordinate (y) of point B:");

// read y2

scanf("%f",&y2);

// calculate Midpoint of A and B

xm=(x1+x2)/2;

ym=(y1+y2)/2;

// calculate slope of the line

s=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1);

// calculate Distance between two points

d=sqrt(((x2-x1)*(x2-x1))+((y2-y1)*(y2-y1)));

// print result

printf("Midpoint of both the point is: %f %f",xm,ym);

printf("\nSlope of both the line is: %f",s);

printf("\nDistance between both the point is: %f",d);

return 0;

}

Explanation:

Read the x & y coordinates of both the points.Then calculate the Midpoint of both the and assign it to variables "xm"&"ym".Then calculate the slope of the line and assign it to variable "s".Then find the distance between the two points and assign it to variable "d".Print all these results.

Output:

Enter coordinate (x) of point A:2

Enter coordinate (y) of point A:3

Enter coordinate (x) of point B:9

Enter coordinate (y) of point B:8

Midpoint of both the point is: 5.500000 5.500000

Slope of both the line is: 0.714286

Distance between both the point is: 8.602325

the benefits of raising bc’s minimum wage to $15 through a

series of pre-announced staged increases far outweigh the likely

costs. claims that such an increase will lead to massive job losses

in low-wage sectors of the economy are not credible.

• an increase to $15 would result in some job losses. however,

the likely impact is less than a 1 per cent reduction in the overall

provincial employment rate, and a 7.6 per cent reduction in the

employment rate for those currently making between $10.25

and $15 per hour.

• the large job loss impacts predicted by some opponents of

minimum wages misrepresent the existing economic research. in

reading and using that research, it is important to recognize that

estimates showing job loss effects of minimum wage increases

apply only to teenagers. estimated effects for young adult and

adult workers range from insignificant to non-existent.

• focusing on teenage workers plays up an inaccurate stereotype

about who earns very low wages in bc and leads to exaggerated

claims about job losses. only 26 per cent of those currently making

between $10.25 and $12 are teenagers, and only 5 per cent

of those making between $12 and $15 are teenagers.
