Another way to solve this is to use the Midpoint Formula. The midpoint of a segment joining points 
and 
is
So the midpoint of your segment is
Perhaps it helps to see that the x-coordinate of the midpoint is just the average of the x-coordinates of the points. Ditto for the y-coordinate of the midpoint; just average the y's.

Given the table showing the distance Randy drove on one day of her vacation as follows:
![\begin{tabular} {|c|c|c|c|c|c|} Time (h)&1&2&3&4&5\\[1ex] Distance (mi)&55&110&165&220&275 \end{tabular}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Btabular%7D%0A%7B%7Cc%7Cc%7Cc%7Cc%7Cc%7Cc%7C%7D%0ATime%20%28h%29%261%262%263%264%265%5C%5C%5B1ex%5D%0ADistance%20%28mi%29%2655%26110%26165%26220%26275%0A%5Cend%7Btabular%7D)
The rate at which she travels is given by
If Randy has driven for one more hour at the same rate, the number of hours she must have droven is 6 hrs and the total distance is given by
distance = 55 x 6 = 330 miles.
