Find the point that is one-fourth of the distance from the point P(-7, 3) to the point Q(7, 2) along the segment PQ. Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
Apply the midpoint formulas to find the coordinates of the midpoint of PQ, call that point M. Then apply the midpoint formulas to find the midpoint of PM.
Midpoint formulas:
and
Write back and tell me the coordinates you derived for the required point and I'll let you know whether you are correct or not.
