Question

What are the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are C(−7, −10) and D(3, 9) ?

(−2, −0.5)


(−4, −1)


(−5, −9.5)


(−8.5, 3)

Answer 1

(-2, -0.5)

Explanation:

1. add the x-coordinates and then either divide by 2 or multiply by 1/2

2. add the y-coordinates and then either divide by 2 or multiply by 1/2

(-7+3)/2 = -2

(-10+9)/2 = -0.5
