Question

How do you find the midpoint of (4, 3) and (10,-7)?

Answer 1

The midpoint `= (7, -2 )`

Explanation:

`(4,3) = color(blue)(x_1 , y_1`
`( 10 , -7 )= color(blue)(x_2 , y_2`

The midpoint is calculated using formula:
Midpoint `= ((x_1 + x_2)/2 , (y_1 + y_2)/2)`

`= ((4+ 10 )/2 , (3+ (-7))/2)`

`= ((14)/2 , -4/2)`

`= (7, -2 )`
