Question

Has endpoints q(4, 10) and s(–2, 3). find the coordinates of the midpoint of . (1, 6.5) (1, 13) (6.5, 3.5) (6.5, 1)

Answer 1

The midpoint is (1, 6.5)

The best way to find the midpoint of a line is by taking the average of its respective coordinates.

The average of the x coordinates 4 and -2 is 1 because when they are added together and divided by 2 you get 1.

Similarly for the y coordinates, which are 10 and 3. Added together they give an answer of 13 and when that is divided by 2 we get 6.5.
