Question

Would the midpoint (2,2) be correct?

Answer 1

(-2,2)

Explanation:

The midpoint is the middle of the line. So, you can take it step-by-step and look at the individual numbers.

Between -6 and 2, that is 8 spaces. So, the middle would be four spaces from one of those numbers. Therefore, X-COORDINATE = -2

Between -3 and 7, that is 10 spaces. So the middle would be 5 spaces from one of those numbers, Therefore, Y-COORDINATE = 2

So, the midpoint would be (-2,2)

Answer 2

Answer: YES, Its correct.

`M_x=(-6+2)/(2)=2\\\\M_y=(-3+7)/(2)=2\\\\M=(2,2)`
