Question

The midpoint of A (-4, 2) and B(8, 5) is?

Answer 1

use midpoint formula

Answer 2

The co-ordinates of midpoint(x,y) on the line segment with end-points

(x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is just the average of co-ordinates, given by :
\(\large x=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}\)
\(\large y=\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}\)
now,just put the values and find the co-ordinates of midpoint (x,y).

Answer 3

y1-y2
--------
x1-x2?

Answer 4

thats slope formula....

Answer 5

Ughhhh.

Answer 6

:|

Answer 7

for mid-point, just take the average...

Answer 8

(-4+8)/2=......?

Answer 9

and (5+2)/2 =... ?

Answer 10

I got 3.5 and 2.

Answer 11

But the answers to select are

(2, 7/2)
(-6, 3/2)
(4, 7/2)

Answer 12

-8+4/2 = 2
5+2/2 =7/2
2,7/2
3.5=7/2

Answer 13

So would I round to (4,7/2)?

Answer 14

(-4+8)/2 = 4/2 = 2
so it would be (2,7/2)

Answer 15

Ohhhhh.Thank you!

Answer 16

welcome ^_^
