Question

What is the midpoint between (10,3) and (-2,-5)

Answer 1

Midpoint formula= [(x2+x1)/2],[(y2+y1)/2]

(4,-1)

StepByStep Explanation:

X , Y

((-2+10)/2) , ((-5+3)/2)

(8/2) , (-2/2)

4 , -1

=(4,-1)

Answer 2

For this case, we have to give two points of the form:

`(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) and (x_ {2}, y_ {2}})`

The formula of the midpoint is given by:

`(\frac {x_ {1} + x {2}} {2}, \frac {y_ {1} + y_ {2}} {2})`

So, be:

(10,3) and (-2, -5)

Substituting in the formula we have:

`(\frac {10 + (- 2)} {2}, \frac {3 + (- 5)} {2}) =\\(\frac {10-2} {2}, \frac {3-5} {2}) =`

Different signs are subtracted and the greater sign is placed:

`(\frac {8} {2}, \frac {-2} {2}) =`

(4, -1)

Thus, the midpoint is (4, -1)

Answer:

(4, -1)
