Question 148519

{{{5+2=7}}} First add the x-coordinates together to get {{{7}}}



{{{7/2}}} Divide that result by 2



So the x-coordinate of the midpoint is {{{x=7/2}}}



{{{4+8=12}}} Now add the y-coordinates together to get {{{12}}}



{{{(12)/2=6}}} Divide that result by 2



So the y-coordinate of the midpoint is {{{y=6}}}



So the midpoint between the points *[Tex \LARGE \left(5,4\right)] and *[Tex \LARGE \left(2,8\right)] is *[Tex \LARGE \left(\frac{7}{2},6\right)]
