Question

find the midpoint of each line segment. you will have a coordinate pair (x, y). 7)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify endpoints

Let the endpoints be $(-4, 4)$ and $(0, 1)$.

Step2: Use mid - point formula

The mid - point formula for two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is $(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2},\frac{y_1 + y_2}{2})$. Here $x_1=-4,x_2 = 0,y_1 = 4,y_2=1$.
$x=\frac{-4 + 0}{2}=\frac{-4}{2}=-2$
$y=\frac{4+1}{2}=\frac{5}{2}=2.5$

Answer:

$(-2,2.5)$
