Question

Find the midpoint of the line segment whose endpoints are
(5,9) (2,-1)?​

Answer 1

(3.5,4)

Step by step explanation:

x coordinate =

`(5 + 2)/(2)`

= 3.5

y coordinate =

`( - 1 + 9)/(2)`

= 4

midpoint = (3.5,4)

Answer 2

( 3.5,4)

Explanation:

To find the midpoint

Add the x coordinates together and divide by 2

(5+2)/2 = 7/2 = 3.5

Add the y coordinates together and divide by 2

(9+-1)/2 = 8/2 = 4

( 3.5,4)
