a line segment on a number line has its endpoints at -9 and 6. Find the coordinate of the midpoint of the segment.
.(-9 +6) / 2 = -3/2 = -1.5.
can anyone help me?
See Similar Questions below.
the midpoint is the average of the two endpoints
To find the midpoint of a line segment, we can use the midpoint formula:
Midpoint = (End Point 1 + End Point 2) / 2
In this case, the endpoints of the line segment are -9 and 6. Plugging these values into the formula, we get:
Midpoint = (-9 + 6) / 2
Simplifying this expression, we have:
Midpoint = -3 / 2
Therefore, the coordinate of the midpoint of the segment is -3/2.
