Question

Find the midpoint of the line segment joining the two points.
(1.8, -3.4) and (-0.4, 1.4)

Answer 1

(0.7, -1)

Explanation:

To find the coordinates for the midpoint you add each coordinate together and divide by 2.

M = (
`(1.8 - 0.4)/(2), (-3.4 + 1.4)/(2)`)

M =
`((1.4)/(2), (-2)/(2))`

M = (0.7, -1)
