Question

Find the midpoint between (0,0) and (-4,-12)
(29) and (5,1)

Answer 1

-2, -6

`(7)/(2)` , 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given coordinates;

(0,0) and (-4,-12)

(2, 9) and (5,1)

Unknown:

Midpoints of the coordinates = ?

Solution:

The coordinates of the midpoint are given as;

x
`_(m)` , y
`_(m)` =(
`(x_(1) + x_(2) )/(2)` ,
`(y_(1) + y_(2) )/(2)`)

Now;

x₁= 0 x₂ = -4 y₁ = 0 y₂ = -12

Input the parameters and solve;

x
`_(m)`, y
`_(m)` =
`(0+(-4))/(2)` ,
`(0+ (-12))/(2)` = -2, -6

For (2, 9) and (5,1)

x₁= 2 x₂ = 5 y₁ = 9 y₂ = 1

x
`_(m)`, y
`_(m)` =
`(2 + 5)/(2)` ,
`(9 + 1)/(2)` =
`(7)/(2)` , 5
