How do you form an equation for a line extending from the origin to the middle of the line segment joined to the points 3 2 and 5 -1?

First find the midpoint of (3, 2) and (5, -1) which is (4, 1/2)
Then find the slope of (0, 0) and (4, 1/2) which is 1/8
Because there is no y intercept the equation is:-
y = 1/8x

What is the middle of a line segment called?
The middle of a line segment is called a Midpoint.;-)
Midpoint of a segment?
The middle point of a line segment.
Why can't a line segment have two midpoints?
because it can only have one middle and and a midpoint is the middle of a line segment and mid point means middle midpoint (middle point).
How is the midpoint of a segment different from the length of a segment?
Mostly because, assuming it just one segment, a midpoint by definition (mid- means middle) is the point at the exact middle of a line segment; whereas the length of the segment is the entire length of the segment. Pretty much, a midpoint is a point in the middle of the line, the length is the measurement of the same line.
What is a segment bisect?
Bisect a segment is to divide the line segment into 2

How does a lift bridge work?
There are 2 towers. The segment in the middle is on a rail on the towers. Ropes goes from the ends of the middle segment up to a pulleys on the towers and from there to motors at the ends of the bridge. When the motors run the pull the middle segment up.
What is midpoint?
The point on a line segment that is equidistant from the ends of the segment. So pretty much a point in the middle of a segment
How many midpoints a segment may have?
Normally just the the one which is in the middle of the line segment
The middle point of a line segment?
midpoint
Midpoint (-15) (-62)?
The point on a line segment that is equidistant from the ends of the segment. So pretty much a point in the middle of a segment
Middle point of line segment?
divide the line segment in half to aquire the center point
Why is the middle finger so bad?
Extending the middle finger is a phallic insult. And it looks like a Pen*s
