Question

What is the midpoint of a line segment with the end points (-4,-3) and (7,-5)

Answer 1

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

So your equation would be set up as ($(\frac{-4+7}{2},\frac{-3+-5}{2})$

Which reduces down to ($(\frac{3}{2},\frac{-8}{2})$

And your answer after dividing is (1.5,-4)
