Question

The mid point of the line segment joining the points (- 5 7) and (- 1 3) is

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the midpoint be (x,y)

let (-5,7) be (x1, y1)

and (-1,3)be (x2,y2)

by midpoint formula

x= (x1 + x2 )÷2

x =[ -5 +( -1)] ÷2

x= -5 -1/2

x= -6/2.

x= -3

y = (y1+ y2)/2

y=( 7+3)/2

y= 10/2

y= 5

coordinates of midpoint are ( -3,5)

hope this helps!!!
