Question

What is the midpoint of (3,4) and (-1,2)?

Answer 1

What are the x coordinates here

Answer 2

3 and -1 I believe..

Answer 3

good, now add them up

Answer 4

Mmk

Answer 5

3 plus -1 = ???

Answer 6

2

Answer 7

then divide that in half

Answer 8

Okay so, 1.

Answer 9

what you just did by adding up the x coordinates and dividing that result by 2 was find the middle point of the x coordinates...this new value (1) is the x coordinate of the midpoint

repeat the last two steps but this time, do it on the y coordinates

Answer 10

so the y coordinates are ???

Answer 11

4 and 2

Answer 12

add them up

Answer 13

6

Answer 14

then divide by 2

Answer 15

3

Answer 16

so the y coordinate of the midpoint is 3

Answer 17

which means that the midpoint is (1, 3)

Answer 18

Awesome, thank you very much!
