Question

Find the midpoint of AB if A is (-3,-3) and B is (6,6)?

Answer 1

(x, y)

When you are asked for the midpoint, just find the average for both the x and y components:

So the midpoint for A(-3, -3) and B(6, 6)

The xs components are -3, and 6, Average = (-3 + 6)/2 = 3/2 = 1.5

The ys components are -3, and 6, Average = (-3 + 6)/2 = 3/2 = 1.5

So the midpoint is (1.5, 1.5)

I hope this helps.
