Given point A (3, 8) and point B (-5, 1). Find the following: a.) The coordinates of the midpoint of segment AB. Write your answer in this form: (x, y) (7 points)

b.) Using the distance formula, find the length of segment AB. Round to the nearest hundredth. (7 points)

c.) Find the slope of segment AB. (if your answer is a fraction, use the "/" symbol) (7 points)

a)   The midpoint of segment AB

AB       =

b)  The length of the line segment   AB = √113

c)      The slope of the line segment  

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given points are

          A (3, 8) and point B (-5, 1).

a)

     Midpoint segment AB

                     =  

                      =    

          AB       =

b)

Distance formula

    AB  

       =

      = √113

 AB = √113

c)

     Slope of the line

      The  slope of the line segment  m = 7/8

4a. is 3 miles every hour

4b. is 1/3 of an hour per mile
