Question

The location of the mid point between (-15,4) (2,-10)

Answer 1

The answer is

`( - (13)/(2) , \: - 3)`

Explanation:

The midpoint M of two endpoints of a line segment can be found by using the formula

`M = ( (x1 + x2)/(2) , \: (y1 + y2)/(2) )`

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(-15,4) (2,-10)

The midpoint is

`M = ( ( - 15 + 2)/(2) , \: (4 - 10)/(2) ) \\ = ( - (13)/(2) , \: - (6)/(2) )`

We have the final answer as

`( - (13)/(2) , \: - 3)`

Hope this helps you
