Question

Point A is located at (0, 4) and point C is located at (-3, 5). Find the x value for point B that is located the distance from point A to point C.

Answer 1

Answer: If point B is on the same line and the same distance from points A and C, the location is (-1.5, 4,5)

Step-by-step explanation: For point B to be the same distance from the other two points, it must be halfway between them.

for the x-value, find the number that is halfway between 0 and -3. That is -1.5

For the y-value, find the number that is halfway between 4 and 5. That is 4.5

The coordinate for point B is (-1.5, 4.5)
