Mr. Martin's car odometer showed 10,393 miles. His wife's odometer showed 26,481 miles. How many more miles were shown on his wife's odometer than on Mr. Martin's odometer?

16,088 more miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Do  26,481-10,393 to get the answer.

26,481-10,393=16,088

The reason that you need to use subtraction to solve this problem is because the word problem says ”how many more”. I’ve learned in school that this is a sign that you have to find the difference to the terms being used in the problem, in this case, 26,481 and 10,393. To find the difference is to subtract the smaller number from the larger number, showing that you have to do 26,481-10,393 to get the answer.

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)
