The temperatures at several times of the day are shown in the coordinate plane below. The x-axis represents the number of hours before or afternoon. For example, -1 would represent 11 a.m. The y-axis represents the temperature in degrees Celsius.

At 5 p.m, the temperature is halfway between the temperature at 2 p.m. and the temperature at 8 p.m.
What coordinates represent the temperature at 5 p.m.?

Answer:

(5,2)

Explanation:

In the picture attached, the coordinate plane is shown.

At 5 p.m., the x-coordinate is 5

The temperature at 2 p.m. is 7 °C and the temperature at 8 p.m. is -3 °C, then at 5 p.m. the temperature is (7-3)/2 = 2 °C. Temperature is represented by y-coordinate, then the point is (5, 2)
