Question

Point A is at (-6,8) and Point B is at (0,0.5) pint M is at the midpoint of point A and B

Answer 1

Midpoint = (-3, 4.25)

Explanation:

`\mathrm{Midpoint\:of\:}\left(x_1,\:y_1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right):\quad \left((x_2+x_1)/(2),\:\:(y_2+y_1)/(2)\right)\\\\\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-6,\:8\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(0,\:0.5\right)\\\\=\left((0-6)/(2),\:(0.5+8)/(2)\right)\\\\= ((-6)/(2) , (8.5)/(2) )\\\\Simplify\\\\=\left(-3,\:4.25\right)`
