Question

What is the coordinate of the midpoint of S the midpoint of ST write your answer as an integer or a decimal or mixed number in simple Form.

Answer 1

We have a segment ST in a number line.

We can calculate the midpoint M as the average of the position of the endpoints S and T.

The position of S is 11 and the position of T is 13, so the midpoint will be:

`M=(S+T)/(2)=(11+13)/(2)=(24)/(2)=12`

Answer: the midpoint is 12.
