Question

Finding the Midpoint of the Two Coordinates
6.) A(-2, 3), B(5,-1)

Answer 1

The answer is

`( (3)/(2) \: , \: 1) \\`

Explanation:

The midpoint M of two endpoints of a line segment can be found by using the formula

`M = ( (x1 + x2)/(2) , \: (y1 + y2)/(2) )\\`

From the question the points are

A(-2, 3), B(5,-1)

The midpoint is

`M = ( ( - 2 + 5)/(2) \: , \: (3 - 1)/(2) ) \\ = ( (3)/(2) \: , \: (2)/(2) )`

We have the final answer as

`( (3)/(2) \: , \: 1) \\`

Hope this helps you
