Question

Find the midpoint of the line segment with end coordinates of:

(-1,7) and (3,-2)

Give coordinates as decimals where appropriate.

Answer 1

(1,2.5)

Explanation:

On the graph, the (-1,7) lies in the top right grid. The (3,-2) lies in the bottom left grid. If you use a graphing calculator, the middle is hard to find but you will find (1, 2.5) or (1, 5/2).
