Question

Find the midpoint of the line segment with end points (-9,3), (5,11)

Answer 1

The midpoint is (-2,7)

Explanation:

To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, take the x coordinates of the endpoints, add them and divide by 2

(-9+5)/2 = -4/2 =-2

To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, take the y coordinates of the endpoints, add them and divide by 2

(3+11)/2 = 14/2 = 7

The midpoint is (-2,7)
