Question

Find the midpoint of the line segment with the given endpoints.

1. (-6,3) and (-6,-1)
2. (-3,-1) and (0,9)

Answer 1

1. (-6,1)

2. (-1.5,4)

Explanation:

1. (-6,3) and (-6,-1)

Midpoint =
`((-6+ -6)/(2) , (3 + -1)/(2)) = (-6, 1)`

2. (-3,-1) and (0,9)

Midpoint =
`((-3 + 0)/(2) , (-1 + 9)/(2) ) = (-1.5,4)`
