Question

Find the coordinate of the midpoint of the segment with the given endpoints. - 7 and 2 The midpoint is (Simplify your answer.)

Answer 1

To be able to get the midpoint of the segment with its given endpoints -7 and 2, we and the two points and divide it by 2.

We get,

$\text{ Midpoint = }\frac{-7\text{ + 2}}{2}\text{ = }\frac{-5}{2}$

Therefore, the midpoint of the segment is -5/2 or -2.5.
