Question

What is the midpoint between (8, -5) and (2, -2)? (5, -1.5) (10, -7) (3, -1.5) (5, -3.5)

Answer 1

$x_{1}$=8
$x_{2}$=2
$y_{1}$=-5
$y_{1}$=-2

Use the midpoint formula: ($\frac{x _{1}+ x_{2} }{y}$,$\frac{y _{1}+ y_{2} }{y}$)
($\frac{8+2}{2}$,$\frac{-5-2}{2}$)
($\frac{10}{2}$,$\frac{-7}{2}$)
(5,-3.5) is the solution
The answer is (5,-3.5) or the 4th choice
