Answer: -4.25 ≤ x ≤ 6.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The midpoint of a segment is located at the same distance of each of the endpoints of the segment.
The midpoint is at x = 1.
The length of the segment is 10.5, if we divide it by two we have:
10.5/2 = 5.25
Now, if we want the endpoints to be at the same distance of the midpoint, then the endpoints will be:
Xmax = midpoint + 5.25
Xmin = midpoint - 5.25
Then the extremes are:
Xmax = 1 + 5.25 = 6.25
Xmin = 1 - 5.25 = -4.25
Then this segment can be written as:
Xmin ≤ x ≤ Xmax
-4.25 ≤ x ≤ 6.25
