Question

Find the midpoint of A and B where A has coordinates (2, 4)
and B has coordinates (-3, -9).

Answer 1

X = -0.5

Y = -2.5

Explanation:

I found this by the forumla determine the X1 and X2 add the together then divide it by 2 for the value of X midpoint. Then add Y1 and Y2 and divide it by 2 together for the value of Y midpoint.

Answer 2

(-0.5,-2.5)

Explanation:

• (x1 + x2) / 2 = x midpoint
• (y1 + y2) / 2 = y midpoint

X:

⇒ 2 + -3 = 5

⇒ 5 / 2 = -0.5

Y:

⇒ 4 + -9 = -5

⇒ -5 / 2 = -2.5

→ = (-0.5, -2.5)
