Question

The endpoints of segment GH are G(-5,5) and H(8, 19). What is the midpoint of segment GH?

Answer 1

Answer:

( 3/2, 12) is the midpoint

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, add the x coordinates together and divide by 2

( -5+8)/2 = 3/2

To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, add the y coordinates together and divide by 2

( 5+19)/2 = 24/2 = 12

( 3/2, 12) is the midpoint
