Question

Find the midpoint of points A(-9, -3) and B(1, 7) graphically.
Plot the line segment AB

Answer 1

Answer: (-4,2)

Explanation:

To find the midpoint of AB, we have to find the mean of the x coordinates for the x coordinate of the midpoint and the mean of the y coordinates for the y coordinate of the midpoint

So the midpoint is ((-9+1)/2,(-3+7)/2) = (-4,2)

To plot the line AB, just find the points A and B on the graph and draw a straight line from A to B
