Question

Find the midpoint (8,4) and (5,3)

Answer 1

(6.5, 3.5)

Explanation:

Given points are (8, 4) & (5, 3)

`\therefore x_1= 8,\: y_1= 4,\: \:x_2=5,\:y_2=3`

`mid \: point \: formula = \bigg( ( x_(1) + x_(2))/(2),\: \: ( y_(1) + y_(2))/(2) \bigg) \\ \\ mid \: point \: = \bigg( ( 8 + 5)/(2) ,\: \: ( 4 + 3)/(2) \bigg) \\ \\ = \bigg( ( 13)/(2) ,\: \: ( 7)/(2) \bigg) \\ \\ = ( 6.5, \: \: 3.5) \\ \\`
