Question

Given: (−10,2) and (3,5), the midpoint is???

Answer 1

Answer:

M=(−7/2,7/2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge{ \boxed{ \sf{( \frac{ - 7}{2} \:, \: \frac{7}{2})}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\star{ \sf{Let \: the \: points \: be \: A \: and \: B}}$

$\sf{A( - 10 ,\: 2) \longrightarrow{ \: (x1 \:, y1)}}$

$\sf{B(3 \:, 5) \: \longrightarrow} \: \sf{(x2 \:, y2)}$

$\underline{ \text{Finding \: the \: midpoint}} :$

$\boxed{ \sf{Midpoint \: = \: ( \frac{x1 + x2}{2} \: , \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )}}$

$\mapsto{ \sf{Midpoint = ( \frac{ - 10 + 3}{2} \: , \frac{2 + 5}{2} }})$

$\text{Remember!} :$

• The positive integers are always added and posses the positive ( + ) sign.
• The negative integers are always added but posses the negative ( - ) sign.
• The negative and positive integers are always subtracted but posses the sign of the bigger integer.

$\mapsto{ \sf{Midpoint = ( \frac{ - 7}{2} , \: \frac{7}{2} }})$

Hope I helped!
