Question

Find the coordinates of the midpoint (-3,13) (10,-4)

Answer 1

The answer is

`( (7)/(2) \: , \: (9)/(2) )`

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

(-3,13) and (10,-4)

The midpoint M is

`M = ( ( - 3 + 10)/(2) , \: (13 - 4)/(2) ) \\`

We have the final answer as

`( (7)/(2) \: , \: (9)/(2) )`

Hope this helps you
