Question

Find the midpoint of the segment with the following endpoints.
(-5,5) and (-10,2)

Answer 1

`\huge{ \fbox{ \sf{ \: (7.5 \:, 3.5)}}}`

Explanation:

`\star{ \sf{ \: Let \: the \: points \: be \: A\: and \: B}}`

`\star{ \sf{ \: Let \:A(-5,5) \: be \: (x1 \:, y1) \: and \: B(-10,2) \: be \: (x2 ,\: y2)}}`

`\underline{ \text{To \: find}} : \sf{Midpoint}`

`\underline{ \underline{ \mathfrak{Let's \: solve}}} :`

`\boxed{ \sf{Midpoint = ( (x1 + x2)/(2) ,\: (y1 + y2)/(2) )}}`

`\hookrightarrow{ \sf{ \: Midpoint = ( ( - 5 + ( - 10))/(2) \:, (5 + 2)/(2) }})`

`\text{ \underline{ Remember!}} : \sf ( + ) * ( - ) = ( - )`

`\hookrightarrow{ \sf{Midpoint = ( ( - 5 - 10)/(2 ) \:, (5 + 2)/(2)}} )`

`\text{ \underline{Remember!}} : \sf{The \: negative \: integers \: are \: always \: added \: but \: posses \: the \: negative \: ( - ) \: sign.}`

`\hookrightarrow{ \sf{Midpoint \: = \: ( ( - 15)/(2) \:, (7)/(2) }})`

`\hookrightarrow{ \sf{Midpoint = ( \: 7.5 ,\: 3.5}})`

Hope I helped!
