Question

Find the midpoint of a segment with endpoints A(-3,10) and B(9,2).

Answer 1

Answer:

(3, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the midpoint use the midpoint formula

midpoint = [ $\frac{1}{2}$($x_{1}$ + $x_{2}$), $\frac{1}{2}$($y_{1}$ + $y_{2}$) ]

with ($x_{1}$, $y_{1}$) = (- 3, 10) and ($x_{2}$, $y_{2}$) = (9, 2)

Hence

midpoint = [$\frac{1}{2}$(- 3 + 9), $\frac{1}{2}$(10 + 2) ]

               = (3, 6)

Answer 2

Answer:

(3, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

You add the x points together and divide by two, then you add the y points together and divide by 2.
