Question

Plz help number 3d ( can you pls show ur steps of how you got the answer)

Answer 1

Answer:

$(\frac{13}{16},-\frac{3}{8})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint of a segment with the given endpoints $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is defined by,

$(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$

In this question endpoints of the segment are,

$Q(-\frac{3}{8},\frac{1}{8})$ and $R(2,-\frac{7}{8})$

Coordinates of the midpoint will be,

$(\frac{-\frac{3}{8}+2}{2},\frac{\frac{1}{8}-\frac{7}{8}}{2})$

= $(\frac{13}{16},-\frac{3}{8})$

Therefore, coordinates of the midpoint are $(\frac{13}{16},-\frac{3}{8})$.
