Question

B(4, 0) and c(10, 4) are the endpoints of a line segment. what is the midpoint m of that line segment? answer

Answer 1

The midpoint formula is $Midpoint: ( x_{m} , y_{m} )=( \frac{sum of x coordinates}{2} , \frac{sum of y coordinates}{2} )$

Therefore,
$x_{m}= \frac{4+10}{2} =7$
$y_{m}= \frac{0+4}{2} =2$

Answer: (7,2)
You could also plot the points and fold the paper so the points are on top of each other. Make a crease in the paper and when you open it the point where the crease intersects the segment is the midpoint.
