Question

Given A(2,9) and B(6,1), find the midpoint of segment AB

Answer 1

the formula of midpoint is

$(\frac{x1+x2}{2},\frac{y1+y2}{2})$

so, replace the points

$\begin{gathered} (\frac{2+6}{2},\frac{9+1}{2}) \\ \\ (\frac{8}{2},\frac{10}{2}) \\ \\ M=(4,5) \end{gathered}$

the mid point is (4,5)
