Sagot :
First we have to find midpoint of R and S.
We can use formula such for it.[tex]Qx= \frac{Rx+Sx}{2}[/tex] and [tex]Qy= \frac{Ry+Sy}{2}[/tex].
We obtained coordinates of point Q
[tex]Qx= \frac{-3+5}{2}=1[/tex] and [tex]Qy= \frac{5+11}{2}=8 [/tex]
Now, we can find the line equation using formula y=ax+b.
We can substitute coordinates of P and Q to this formula and solving system of equation get the answer.
After substituting we obtaind such system
[tex]\left \{ {{20=7a+b } \atop {8=a+b}} \right. [/tex]
From the system of equation we obtain result
[tex] \left \{ {{a=2} \atop {b=6}} \right. [/tex]
Now we can put our resuts to general line equation.
[tex]y=2x+6[/tex]
