Answer:
Coordinates of midpoint are (8,1.5).
Step-by-step explanation:
Given coordinates of end points are;
(7,4) and (9,-1)
we can find the coordinates of mid-point,
[tex](\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]
Here,
x1 = 7 and y1 = 4
x2 = 9 and y2 = -1
Putting these values in formula
Coordinates of mid point = [tex](\frac{7+9}{2},\frac{4+(-1)}{2})\\[/tex]
Midpoint = [tex](\frac{16}{2},\frac{4-1}{2})[/tex]
Midpoint = [tex](\frac{16}{2},\frac{3}{2})[/tex]
Midpoint = 8 , 1.5
Hence,
Coordinates of midpoint are (8,1.5).
