Question

Find the MIDPOINT of the following two points:

(3,-1) (2,4)



Type your answer as an ordered pair.

Answer 1

Answer: (2.5  ;  1.5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

• The midpoint of the segment with the points $\bf ( x_1 \ ; \ y_ 1)$ and $\bf (x_2 \ ; \ y_2)$  is calculated by the formula:

• $\bf (x _0 \ \ ; \ \ y _0) = \bigg(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2} \ ; \ \dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2} \bigg)$  

• Then :

• $\bf (x_0 \ ; \ y_ 0)=\bigg( \dfrac{3+2}{2} \ \ ; \dfrac{4-1}{2} \bigg) =( 2.5 \ \ ; \ \ 1,5 )$
