Question

Given points A (-8,7) and B (6, -9), find the midpoint, M

Answer 1

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

To find the x value of the midpoint, you add the 2 x values and divide by 2.

-8+6=-2

-2/2=-1

For the y value, you do the same thing but with the y values.

7-9=-2

-2/2=-1

Therefore, our midpoint is (-1,-1).

Have a wonderful day! :D
