Basic Math Examples

$(- 1, 1)$ , $(2, 5)$

Step 1

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

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

Step 2

Substitute in the values for $(x_{1}, y_{1})$ and $(x_{2}, y_{2})$ .

$(\frac{- 1 + 2}{2}, \frac{1 + 5}{2})$

Step 3

Add $- 1$ and $2$ .

$(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1 + 5}{2})$

Step 4

Add $1$ and $5$ .

$(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{6}{2})$

Step 5

Divide $6$ by $2$ .

$(\frac{1}{2}, 3)$
