Question

what is the midpoint of the segment shown below (-11,0) (9,-1)

Answer 1

Answer:

(-1, -1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

M= (Xa+Xb/2, Ya + Yb/2)

M= -11+9/2  ,  0 + -1/2

M = -2/2, -1/2

M=(-1, -1/2)

Answer 2

Answer:

(-1,-1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The mid-point of a line segment is defined as the point halfway between the end points of a line segment.

It is denoted by M.

The formula to find mid-point of a line segment is

M=($x_{1} +x_{2}$/2,$y_{1} +y_{2}$/2)

where $x_{1} =-11$

$x_{2} =9$

$y_{1} =0$

$y_{2}$=-1 are given.

put above values in mid-point formula:

M= (-11+9/2,0-1/2)

M=(-2/2,-1/2)

M=(-1,-1/2)
