6 + 4w = 2w − 6
Solve for W

W=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

6+4w=2w-6

Collect Terms

4w-2w=-6-6

2w=-12

now divide both sides by 2

2w/2=-12/2

w=-6

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)

no this is a nonlinear negative
