Question

What is the midpoint of (-23,-14) and (-18,2)

Answer 1

Given two coordinates point 1 as (-23,-14) and point 2 as(-18,2).

To find the midpoint we would use the formula below;

`\text{midpoint(x,y)}=(\frac{x_1+x_2_{}_{}}{2},(y_1+y_2)/(2))`

Where x1=-23, x2=-18, y1=-14, y2=2

We would substitute the values into the midpoint formula.

`\begin{gathered} \text{midpoint =(}(-23-18)/(2),(-14+2)/(2)) \\ =(-(41)/(2),-6) \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the answer is

`\text{midpoint}=(-(41)/(2),-6)`
