What is the midpoint of line segment
AB?
The midpoint of line segment AB is found by taking the average of the x-coordinates and the average of the y-coordinates of points A and B.
The x-coordinate of the midpoint is: (2 + (-3)) / 2 = -1/2
The y-coordinate of the midpoint is: (5 + (-5)) / 2 = 0
So, the midpoint of line segment AB is at (-1/2, 0).
To find the midpoint of line segment AB, you need to average the x-coordinates and the y-coordinates of points A and B separately.
The x-coordinate of point A is -3, and the x-coordinate of point B is 2. To find the average, you add these two values together and divide by 2:
(-3 + 2) / 2 = -1/2
The y-coordinate of point A is -5, and the y-coordinate of point B is 5. To find the average, you add these two values together and divide by 2:
(-5 + 5) / 2 = 0/2 = 0
Therefore, the midpoint of line segment AB is (-1/2, 0).
To find the midpoint of a line segment AB, you need to average the x-coordinates and the y-coordinates of the two endpoints A and B.
The x-coordinate of point A is -3, and the x-coordinate of point B is 2. To find the average, add -3 and 2 together and divide by 2: (-3 + 2) / 2 = -1/2. So the x-coordinate of the midpoint is -1/2.
The y-coordinate of point A is -5, and the y-coordinate of point B is 5. To find the average, add -5 and 5 together and divide by 2: (-5 + 5) / 2 = 0. So the y-coordinate of the midpoint is 0.
Therefore, the midpoint of line segment AB is (-1/2, 0).

What is the midpoint of line segment
\[\overline{AB}\]?
To find the midpoint of line segment AB, we need to average the x-coordinates and the y-coordinates of points A and B.
The x-coordinate of point A is -3, and the x-coordinate of point B is 2. To find the average, we add -3 and 2 together and divide by 2:
\[\frac{(-3 + 2)}{2} = -\frac{1}{2}\]
The y-coordinate of point A is -5, and the y-coordinate of point B is 5. To find the average, we add -5 and 5 together and divide by 2:
\[\frac{(-5 + 5)}{2} = \frac{0}{2} = 0\]
Therefore, the midpoint of line segment AB is \[\left(-\frac{1}{2}, 0\right)\].
