Question

find the midpoint of the segment with endpoints of(-2,-2) and (4,6) and enter its coordinates as an ordered pair. If necessary, express coordinate as fractions, using slash mark for the fraction bar.

Answer 1

Find the midpoint of the segment with endpoints of(-2,-2) and (4,6)

To calculate the midpoint we will use the following expression

`\begin{gathered} \text{midpoint}=((x1+x2)/(2),(y1+y2)/(2)) \\ \text{midpoint}=((-2+4)/(2),(-2+6)/(2)) \\ \\ midpoint=((2)/(2),(4)/(2)) \\ \text{midpoint}=(1,2) \end{gathered}`
