Answer:
The midpoints are ( 6, 6.5 ).
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the endpoints are A ( 9, 8) and B (3,5)-
As we know that-
If a line segment AB is with endpoints ([tex]x_{1}, y_{1}[/tex]) and ([tex]x_{2}, y_{2}[/tex] then the mid points C are-
C = ([tex]\frac{x_{1} + x_{2} }{2}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{y_{1} + y_{2} }{2}[/tex] )
Here,
A ( [tex]x_{1} = 9, y_{1} = 8[/tex] and B ( [tex]x_{2} = 3, y_{2} =5[/tex]
then the midpoints C are-
C = ( [tex]\frac{9 + 3 }{2}[/tex], [tex]\frac{8 + 5 }{2}[/tex]
C= ( 12/2 , 13/2 )
C = ( 6, 6.5 )
Hence the midpoints are (6, 6.5).
