Question

What is the midpoint of the segment show below

Answer 1

Answer:

Your answer is B. (3, 5/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the midpoint of a segment is

(x1 + x2) / 2 to find the x value

and (y1 + y2) / 2 to find the y value of the midpoint.

To find the midpoint of the segment in the photo, you would do...

-1 + 3 divided by 2, giving you 3 for your x

and then 2+3 divided by 2, giving you 5/2 for your y.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

the midpoint is based on the average of the two pair of point X1 and X2 as Y1 and Y1 divided by 2, each one. So, if we settle X1 and Y1 as (-1,2) and X2 and Y1 as (7,3)

(X1 + X2)/2 = (-1+7)/2 = 6/2= 3

(Y1 + Y2)/2 = (2+3)/2 = 5/2

so, we get the Answer B (3 , 5/2)
