Question

How do you find the midpoint of K(-9,3), H(5,7)?

Answer 1

Midpoint `M(x_m, y_m)=(-2, 5)`

Explanation:

The formulas

`x_m=(x_k+x_h)/2=(-9+5)/2=-4/2=-2`

`y_m=(y_k+y_h)/2=(3+7)/2=10/2=5`

God bless....I hope the explanation is useful.

Answer 2

(-2 ,5)

Explanation:

Given 2 coordinate points `(x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2)` then the midpoint is.

`color(red)(|bar(ul(color(white)(a/a)color(black)(1/2(x_1+x_2),1/2(y_1+y_2)color(white)(a/a)|)))`

here the 2 points are K(-9 ,3) and H(5 ,7)

Thus the midpoint of KH = `(1/2(-9+5),1/2(3+7))=(-2,5)`
