Bennett was visiting five cities that lie on a coordinate grid at A(-2, 3), B(2, 7), C(7, 8),D(6, 3) and E(2, -1). What is the midpoint between A and E?

Respuesta :

Remember that

The formula to calculate the midpoint between two points is given by

[tex]M(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]

we have the points

A(-2, 3) and E(2, -1)

Find out the midpoint

Applying the formula above

[tex]\begin{gathered} M(\frac{-2+2}{2},\frac{3-1}{2}) \\ \\ M(0,1) \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore

The midpoint is (0,1)
