Question

The endpoints of QR are Q(2,7) and R(-8,4). Find the coordinates of the midpoint M.​

Answer 1

The midpoint of QR is (-3.5.5)

Explanation:

To find the x coordinates of the midpoint, add the x coordinates of the endpoint and divide by 2.

(2+-8)/2 = -6/2 = -3

To find the y coordinates of the midpoint, add the y coordinates of the endpoint and divide by 2.

(7+4)/2 = 11/2 = 5.5

The midpoint of QR is (-3.5.5)
