Question

What is midpoint of A(2, 3) and B(-2, 5)?

Answer 1

The midpoint of A and B is (0, 4).

Explanation:

Use the midpoint formula, ((x₁ + x₂)/2 , (y₁ + y₂)/2)

First, solve for the x part.

(2 + (-2))/2

0/2

0

So the x-coordinate of the midpoint is 0.

Then, solve for the y part.

(3 + 5)/2

8/2

4

So the y-coordinate of the midpoint is 4.
