Respuesta :
X₁ + X₂ / 2 & Y₁ + Y₂ / 2 ------------- This is the formula to plug in the coordinates.
3.5 + 1.5 / 2= 2.5 2.2 + (-4.8) / 2= -1.3
Answer = (2.5,-1.3)
3.5 + 1.5 / 2= 2.5 2.2 + (-4.8) / 2= -1.3
Answer = (2.5,-1.3)
Answer:
A midpoint is a point on a line segment that divide the segment into two equal segments.
Formula for finding midpoint with any two endpoints is;
[tex](x, y) = (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} , \frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )[/tex]
Given two end points:
(3.5 , 2.2) and (1.5 , -4.8).
Let P(x, y) be the midpoint of (3.5 , 2.2) and (1.5 , -4.8).
By midpoint formula we have;
[tex](x, y) = (\frac{3.5+1.5}{2} , \frac{2.2-4.8}{2} )[/tex]
[tex](x, y) = (\frac{5}{2} , -\frac{2.6}{2} )[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex](x, y) = (2.5 , -1.3)[/tex]
Therefore, the midpoint of the line segment with given endpoints is, (2.5, -1.3)
