Question

What is the midpoint of the segment shown below?

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoints are found by averaging the coordinates.

Averaging " add all the numbers and divide by the number of numbers.

Here, there are only 2 numbers. So, you divide by 2.

(1,2) (1,-5)

$\frac{1 +1}{2}$ , $\frac{2 + (-5)}{2}$

$\frac{2}{2}$ , $\frac{-3}{2}$

(1, $\frac{-3}{2}$ )
