Question

What is the midpoint of (-3,4),(5,8)

Answer 1

Explanation:

we are given the midpoint formula in the image, we just need to plug in values. here, we have
`(x_1,y_1)=(-3,4)` and
`(x_2,y_2)=(5,8)`. now, we plug in the values to find the midpoint.

`M=\bigg((-3+5)/(2),(4+8)/(2)\bigg)`

then simplify:

`M=\bigg((2)/(2),(12)/(2)\bigg)=(1,6)`

so, our midpoint is (1,6)

Answer 2

midpoint M = (1, 6 )

Explanation:

calculate the midpoint M using the midpoint formula

M = (
`(x_(1)+x_(2) )/(2)` ,
`(y_(1)+y_(2) )/(2)` )

let (x₁, y₁ ) = A (- 3, 4 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = B (5, 8 )

substitute these values into the formula for M

M = (
`(-3+5)/(2)` ,
`(4+8)/(2)` ) = (
`(2)/(2)` ,
`(12)/(2)` ) = (1, 6 )
