Question

Find the midpoint of the segment with the following endpoints.
(8,4) and (2,7)

Answer 1

( 5 , 5½ )

Explanation:

It's simple actually, use the midpoint formula,

`(x1 + x2)/(2) ... (y1 + y2)/(2) = ( (8 + 2)/(2) ... (4 + 7)/(2) ) = (5..5 (1)/(2) )`

Take the ... as a comma.

So the final answer is ( 5 , 5.5 )
