What is the midpoint of (-3,9), (5,3)

Question

What is the midpoint of (-3,9),(5,3)

 

Answer 1

Given two endpoints, (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂), the midpoint is:

 

Midpoint = ( (x₁+x₂)/2, (y₁+y₂)/2 )

 

For this problem ((x₁,y₁) = (-3,9) and (x₂,y₂) = (5,3).  Plug the numbers into the formula and compute the answer.
