Question

What is the midpoint of line LN where L(5,2) and N(-3,6)

Answer 1

The formula of a midpoint between two points:

`M\left((x_1+x_2)/(2),\ (y_1+y_2)/(2)\right)`

We have L(5, 2) and N(-3, 6).

Substitute:

`(5+(-3))/(2)=(5-3)/(2)=(2)/(2)=1\\\\(2+6)/(2)=(8)/(2)=4`

Answer: The midpoint of line LN is (1, 4).
