For points a(−4, 8) and b(6, −14), what is the y-coordinate of the midpoint of line segment ab?

The y coordinate is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint, we use

midpoint = (x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2

You only ask for the y coordinate.

y midpoint = (y1+y2)/2

y midpoint = (8+-14)/2

                 = -6/2

                   = -3

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice
