Question

How do you find the midpoint of (-2, -3), (0,0)?

Answer 1

The midpoint `= (-1 , -1.5)`

Explanation:

`(-2 , -3 ) = color(blue)(x_1 , y_1)`

`(0 , 0 ) = color(blue)(x_2 , y_2)`

The midpoint is calculated using formula:
Midpoint `= ((x_1 + x _2)/ 2 , (y_1 + y _2) /2)`

`= ((-2 + 0 )/2 , (-3+0)/2)`

`= (-2/2 , -3/2)`

Midpoint`= (-1 , -1.5)`
