find the midpoint of (3, -5) and (1, -3).

M=(2, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint formula is "M=((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2)"

Plug the two coordinates in.

M=((3 + 1)/2, (-5 + (-3))/2)

M=(4/2, -8/2)

M=(2, -4)

the direct variation says that:

then the equation is of the form is given by:

            where k is the constant variation.

from the given table:

consider any value of x and m(x)=y

x = 2 and m(x)=y = 3

substitute these value in [1]; we have;

divide both sides by 2 we get;

⇒

check:

put x = -1 and m(x) = -1.5

substitute in the equation:

-1.5 = -1.5                   true

therefore, the function m(x) represents a direct variation
