How to find the midpoint of a line segment?

M = (x1 + x2 / 2 , y1 + y2 / 2 )

Essentially you take the two points that the line ends and begins on. (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) then add the x's and the y's together and divide them by two and you have two points. That's the midpoint.
Hope this is helpful and I'm onto the right topic!

What we know is that a 6 foot tall tent casts a 15 foot shadow. Lets represent that given this way: 6 = 15
So, the unknown (y), or what we want to know, is how tall the cardboard box if it has a 6 foot long shadow (noticeably the same height as the tent):
y = 6

6 = 15
y = 6

(6 x 6) / 15 = y
36 / 15 = y
2.4 = y

The height of the cardboard box is 2.4 feet.
