Question

B(7, 2) and C(-1,-9) are the endpoints of a line segment. What is the midpoint M of that line
segment?

Answer 1

Answer:

(3,-3.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

$Mid-point formula : \frac{ x_{1} +x_{2}} {2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2} \\\\x=\frac{7+(-1)}{2} , y= \frac{2+(-9)}{2} \\x= \frac{6}{2} , y= \frac{-7}{2} \\x=3 , y= -3.5$

Midpoint M of the line segment is (3,-3.5)
