1 Answer

May 18, 2016

The midpoint #=(3.5 , 6)#

Explanation:

#P (2,4) = color(blue)(x_1 , y _1)#

#Q (5,8) = color(blue)(x_2 , y _2)#

The midpoint is calculated using formula:
Midpoint # = (color(blue)((x_1 + x _ 2) /2 , ( y_ 1 + y_2) /2 ))#

#=((2+5)/2 , (4+8)/2)#

#=(7/2 , 12/2)#

#=(3.5 , 6)#
