Question

find the midpoint of points a(10, 7) and b(4, 3) graphically. you may press submit or click the graph again to replot the midpoint. start over remove rectangle

Explanation:

Step1: Recall 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 $x_1 = 10,y_1 = 7,x_2 = 4,y_2 = 3$.

Step2: Calculate x - coordinate of mid - point

$x=\frac{10 + 4}{2}=\frac{14}{2}=7$.

Step3: Calculate y - coordinate of mid - point

$y=\frac{7+3}{2}=\frac{10}{2}=5$.

Answer:

$(7,5)$
