Question

BC has endpoints B(-3,-5) and C(12,12). FInd the coordinates of the midpoint of BC

Answer 1

(9/2, 7/2)

Explanation:

The easiest way to remember how to do this problem is to average the x-coordinates and average the y-coordinates.

So, in your problem (-3 + 12)/2 = 9/2 and (-5 + 12)/2 = 7/2

The midpoint is (9/2, 7/2)
