Question

jason and ronald
jason and ronald are camping at fontainebleau state park. a grid has been drawn to represent the locations of each of their campsites. each unit on the grid represents 100 feet.
jason and ronald decide to walk directly towards each other and meet halfway. at which coordinate point will they meet? show the work you used to arrive at your answer.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify coordinates

Jason's campsite: $(-3, 2)$; Ronald's campsite: $(2, -2)$

Step2: Calculate midpoint x-coordinate

$\frac{-3 + 2}{2} = \frac{-1}{2} = -0.5$

Step3: Calculate midpoint y-coordinate

$\frac{2 + (-2)}{2} = \frac{0}{2} = 0$

Answer:

They will meet at the coordinate point $(-0.5, 0)$
