Answer:

[tex]M=(\frac{3}2},\frac{9}{2})[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint is given by the formula:

[tex]M=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]

So we have the two endpoints A(3,7) and B(0,2).

Let's let (3,7) be x₁ and y₁ and let's let (0,2) be x₂ and y₂.

Therefore, our midpoint is:

[tex]M=(\frac{3+0}{2},\frac{7+2}{2})[/tex]

Add:

[tex]M=(\frac{3}2},\frac{9}{2})[/tex]

Or:

[tex]M=(1.5,4.5)[/tex]

And we're done!

Hope this helps!

Answer: (1.5,4.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

For midpoint i have a little cheer to remember the steps it goes," Midpoint, midpoint, what do you do? add them together and divide by two.

so using this problem as an example you would add the y coordinates and the x coordinates and get (3,9) then you divide X and Y by two.

So 3 divided by 2 is 1.5 so that is the X coordinate for the midpoint

and 9 divided by 2 is 4.5 so that is your Y coordinate for the midpoint.

Put it together and your answer is (3.5,4.5)
