78. Find the midpoint of a line whose endpoints are (10, 15) and (9, 8)?

1. 5.5
2. 8.5
3. 9.5
4. 10.5

Answer

The correct answer is: C) 9.5

Explanation

The midpoint formula can be used to locate the midpoint of a line segment with provided endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).

((x1 + x2) / 2, (y1 + y2) / 2) is the midpoint.

The provided endpoints are (10, 15) and (9, 8).

((10 + 9) / 2, (15 + 8) / 2) is the midpoint.

(19 / 2, 23 / 2) = midpoint

The midpoint is (9.5, 11.5).
