Question

In a coordinate system points A(-2,3) and B(6,-1) have a midpoint of x.What is the midpoint between A and x?
A.(0,0)
B.(2,1)
C.(0,2)
D.(4,2)
E.(-1,1.5)

Answer 1

well first you find the midpoint x, which is
\[\frac{ B-A }{ 2 }\]

Answer 2

so the x coordinate is

\[\frac{ 6-(-2) }{ 2 }\]

Answer 3

and y is

\[\frac{ -1-3 }{ 2 }\]

Answer 4

aaa my bad, it should be plus not minus

Answer 5

so x is \[\frac{ -2+6 }{ 2 }\]

and y is \[\frac{ -1+3 }{ 2 }\]

Answer 6

so x = (2,1)

Answer 7

And now using the same formula you find the midpoint between x and A

Answer 8

I get C. (0,2)
