J(-3,7) and K(4,-2) are endpoints of a line segment. Find the coordinates of the midpoint M. Find the distance between the endpoints.

What is the value of x in the following equation? -3x-2=2x+8

What is the length of the segment, endpoints of which are intersections of parabolas y=x^2− 11/4 x− 7/4 and y=− 7 /8 x^2+x+ 31/8 ?

Astudent draws two parabolas on graph paper. both parabolas cross the x-axis at (–4, 0) and (6, 0). the y-intercept of the first parabola is (0, –12). the y-intercept of the second parabola is (0, –24). what is the positive difference between the a values for the two functions that describe the parabolas? write your answer as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth
