To find the x-value of the midpoint, you add half the difference between the
x-values of (1, 7) and (3, 11) to 1, which is the smaller of the two x-values. The
complete expression for the x-value is 1 + __
1
2(3 − 1). What expression do you get
if you add half the difference between the y-values of (1, 7) and (3, 11) to 7 to
find the y-value of the midpoint?



Answer :

MrRoyal

The x and the y values of the midpoint are 2 and 9, respectively

How to determine the x and the y values of the midpoint?

The points are given as:

(1, 7) and (3, 11)

The rules to determine the x and the y values of the midpoint are given as:

Add half the difference between the x-values or y values of (1, 7) and (3, 11) to the smaller of the two x-values or y values

So, we have:

x value

Midpoint = 1/2(3 - 1) + 1

Evaluate

Midpoint = 2

y value

Midpoint = 1/2(11 - 7) + 7

Evaluate

Midpoint = 9

Hence, the x and the y values of the midpoint are 2 and 9, respectively
