Question

The points are (-2,4) and (6,-1)

Answer 1

Answer: the slope is -5/8 so the mid point would be 2,1.5

Explanation:

Answer 2

Explanation:

You are half way there when you record the endpoints from the graph correctly. Nice work.

The midpoint is found by this formula

(x_mid,y_mid) = (x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2

Givens

• x1 = -2
• x2 = 6
• y1 = 4
• y2 = -1

Solution

(x_mid,y_mid) = (-2 + 6)/2, (4 + - 1)/2

(x_mid,y_mid) = (2, 1.5) Answer
