Keisha has a rug in the shape of a rectangle that she wants to put in her bedroom. The rug has an area of 6 square meters. She wants to see if it will fit in the space she has in her bedroom. If the rug has a height of 2.5 meters, what is the base of the rug?

Step-by-step explanation:

first of all

area of a rectangle is length x breadth

length is 2.5

breadth is ??

area is 6 square

therefore. ... 2.5 x ? = 6

? = 6/2.5

base = 2.4

for finding the midpoint of any given 2 pair of points simply add the respective x coordinates with other x coordinate and the y coordinate with other y coordinate and divide them by 2

in your question it will be :

(3+1)/2 for the x coordinate of mid point i.e 2

[8+(-4)]/2 for the y coordinate of midpoint i.e 2

so coordinates of mid point of points (3,8) and (1,-4) will be (2,2)
