Question

What is the midpoint of BC?

Question 4 options:

(0, 1)

(1, 7)

(1, 3)

(0, 2)

Answer 1

The answer to your question is (0, 1)

Explanation:

Data

B (3, -1)

C (-3, 3)

Formula

`Xm = (x1 + x2)/(2)`

`Ym = (y1 + y2)/(2)`

Substitution and simplification

`Xm = (3 - 3)/(2)`

`Xm = (0)/(2)`

Xm = 0

`Ym = (-1 + 3)/(2)`

`Ym = (2)/(2)`

Ym = 1

Result

(0, 1)

Answer 2

To find the midpoint, add the two x values together and divide by 2, and then do the same with the Y values.

-3 + 3 = 0

0 / 2 = 0, the X value is 0

-1 + 3 = 2

2/2 = 1, the Y value is 1

The midpoint would be (0,1)
