Question

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of CM with endpoints C(1, −6) and M(7, 5).

Answer 1

( 4, -1/2)

Explanation:

To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, add the x coordinates and divide by 2

( 1+7)/2 = 8/2 =4

To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, add the y coordinates and divide by 2

( -6+5)/2 = -1/2

( 4, -1/2)
