Question

Point A is located at (1, 5), and D is located at (−3, 7). Find the coordinates of the point that lies halfway between A and D. (−3, 4) (−1, 6) (1, 6) (3, 4)

Answer 1

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1.You must apply the formula for calculate the midpoint of a segment. You have:

2. You have the following points: Point A is located at (1, 5), and D is located at (−3, 7).

x=(x1+x2)/2=(1-3)/2=-2/2=-1
y=(y1+y2)/2=(5+7)/2=12/2=6

Therefore, the answer is: (-1,6)
