Question

Please help me with this problem

Point M is the midpoint of segment AB. Find the X_ COORDINATE of the midpoint M if A (5.1,4.6) and B (7.9, 2.5). Round to the nearest tenth if needed.

Answer 1

6.5

Explanation:

The x-coordinate of the midpoint of a segment is the average of the x-coordinates of the endpoints.

x-coordinate of point A is 5.1

x-coordinate of point B is 7.9

x-coordinate of midpoint is (5.1 + 7.9)/2 = 6.5

Answer: 6.5
