Question

What is the midpoint of np if N(10, -14) and P(-16, -4)?

Answer 1

Answer:

Midpoint = (-3 ,-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

$\\Midpoint =\left(\frac{x_2+x_1}{2},\:\:\frac{y_2+y_1}{2}\right)\\\\\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(10,\:-14\right),\:\\\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(-16,\:-4\right)\\\\=\left(\frac{-16+10}{2},\:\frac{-4-14}{2}\right)\\\\=(\frac{-6}{2}, \frac{-18}{2}\\ \\Simplify\\\\=\left(-3,\:-9\right)$
