Basic Math Examples

(1.75, 1.75)

$(1.75, 1.75)$ ,

(- 4.5, 5.63)

$(- 4.5, 5.63)$

Step 1

Use the midpoint formula to find the midpoint of the line segment.

(\frac{x_{1} + x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1} + y_{2}}{2})

$(\frac{x_{1} + x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1} + y_{2}}{2})$

Step 2

Substitute in the values for

(x_{1}, y_{1})

$(x_{1}, y_{1})$ and

(x_{2}, y_{2})

$(x_{2}, y_{2})$ .

(\frac{1.75 - 4.5}{2}, \frac{1.75 + 5.63}{2})

$(\frac{1.75 - 4.5}{2}, \frac{1.75 + 5.63}{2})$

Step 3

Subtract

4.5

$4.5$ from

1.75

$1.75$ .

(\frac{- 2.75}{2}, \frac{1.75 + 5.63}{2})

$(\frac{- 2.75}{2}, \frac{1.75 + 5.63}{2})$

Step 4

Divide

- 2.75

$- 2.75$ by

2

$2$ .

(- 1.375, \frac{1.75 + 5.63}{2})

$(- 1.375, \frac{1.75 + 5.63}{2})$

Step 5

Add

1.75

$1.75$ and

5.63

$5.63$ .

(- 1.375, \frac{7.38}{2})

$(- 1.375, \frac{7.38}{2})$

Step 6

Divide

7.38

$7.38$ by

2

$2$ .

(- 1.375, 3.69)

$(- 1.375, 3.69)$
