Find the midpoint between (8, 17) and (24, -31)

Sagot :

To find the midpoint between two given points we need to find the average of their coordinates, this is done by adding the numbers and dividing by 2. We have:

[tex]x_{\text{mid}}=\frac{8+24}{2}=\frac{32}{2}=16[/tex][tex]y_{\text{mid}}=\frac{17-31}{2}=\frac{-14}{2}=-7[/tex]

The midpoint is in the coordinates (16, -7).
