What is the midpoint of the segment shown below?
1 answer:
The midpoint of the segment is (-15/2, -15/2)
<h3>How to determine the midpoint?</h3>The complete question is in the attached image
The points are given as:
(-8, -7) and (-7, -8)
The midpoint is calculated as:
(x,y) = 1/2 * (x1 + x2, y1 + y2)
So, we have:
(x,y) = 1/2 * (-8 - 7, -7 - 8)
Evaluate the difference
(x,y) = 1/2 * (-15, -15)
Evaluate the product
(x,y) = (-15/2, -15/2)
Hence, the midpoint of the segment is (-15/2, -15/2)
