Question

Please help ASAP Meteorologists are planning the location of a new weather station to cover Santa Cruz, Morgan Hill, and Gilroy, California. To optimize the radar coverage, the station must be equidistant from the three cities which are located on a coordinate plane at 5(-5,-5), M(2, 2), and G(4,-2). What are the coordinates where the station should be built?

Answer 1

(-1, -2.5)

Explanation:

(3, 0) is the midpoint between (2, 2) and (4, -2)

(-5, -5) (3, 0) the midpoint between these two points is

(-5 + 3) / 2 = -1, (-5 + 0) / 2 = -2.5
