Question

M is the midpoint of the line segment joining points P and Q. At which point should M be plotted?

Answer 1

P(7,4) Q(-3,-4)
\[M=(\frac{7+(-3)}{2},\frac{4+(-4)}{2})\]

Answer 2

that not one of my options :s

Answer 3

Midpoint formula
\[M=(\frac{x+x_1}{2},\frac{y+y_1}{2})\]
just do this
\[M=(\frac{7+(-3)}{2},\frac{4+(-4)}{2})\]

Answer 4

so 7+3=10/2= 5, 8/2=4 so (5,4)?

Answer 5

it isn't one of my options

Answer 6

(0, 1)
(-2, 0)
(2, 0)
(0, -1)

Answer 7

?

Answer 8

@jlovexx you're doing the math worngly ,
\[M=(\frac{7+(-3)}{2},\frac{4+(-4)}{2}) \]
\[M=(\frac{7-3}{2},\frac{4-4}{2})\]
Try again now?

Answer 9

okay so 7-3=4/2= 2. 4-4=0/2=0 so (2,0)??

Answer 10

yes correct :)

Answer 11

thank you :D
