Question

What is the midpoint of a line segment with the endpoints (-4,-3) and (7,-5)?O A. (-3.5, 1)O B. (1.5,-4)O c. (-4,1.5)O D. (1.-3.5)SUBMIT

Answer 1

Step 1:

In this question, we are given the following:

What is the midpoint of a line segment with the endpoints (-4,-3) and (7,-5)?

A. (-3.5, 1)

B. (1.5,-4)

C. (-4,1.5)

D. (1.-3.5)

Step 2:

The midpoint of a line segment with the endpoints (-4,-3) and (7,-5) is:

`\begin{gathered} ((x_1+x_2)/(2),(y_1+y_2)/(2)) \\ =\text{ (}(-4+7)/(2),(-3+(-5))/(2)) \\ =\text{ (}(3)/(2),(-8)/(2)) \\ \end{gathered}`

`=\text{ (1. 5 , -4 ) --- OPTION B}`
