If "a" and "b" are two values of x-coordinate, and "m" is the midpoint between them, it means the distance from one end to the midpoint is the same as the distance from the midpoint to the other end
... a-m = m-b
When we add m+b to this equation, we get
... a+b = 2m
Solving for m gives
... m = (a+b)/2
This applies to y-coordinates as well. So ...
... The midpoint between (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is ((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2)
_____
Jennifer had (x1, y1) = (-4, 10) and (x2, y2) = (-2, 6). So her calculation would be
... midpoint = ((-4-2)/2, (10+6)/2) = (-6/2, 16/2) = (-3, 8)
Brandon had (x1, y1) = (9, -4) and (x2, y2) = (-12, 8). So his calculation would be
... midpoint = ((9-12)/2, (-4+8)/2) = (-3/2, 4/2) = (-1.5, 2)
When dealing with little odds you must know one part and the whole part. For number 1 a fraction , 7 is a part of a 11 which is the whole. For 2 a percent, 6% part and 100% whole, here you had to know that for 6% to exist there had to be a 100% . For 3 a ratio, the first number is part (2) and the second is whole (7). Look at pic for all work.
