Question

Enter the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are (6, 5) and (−4, 12).

Answer 1

Explanation:

Hey there!

Simply use the formula for midpoint to solve it.

Here, The given points are (6,5) and (-4,12).

Using midpoint formulae,

`(x,y) = ( (x1 + x2)/(2) , (y1 + y2)/(2) )`

Put all values.

`(x,y) = ( (6 - 4)/(2) , (5 + 12)/(2) )`

Simplify them to get answer.

`(x,y) = ( 1, (17)/(2) )`

Therefore the midpoint is (1,17/2).

Hope it helps...
