Find the midpoint of the segment between the points (17,1) and (−2,8)
a. (19/2,−7/2)
b. (−15,−9)
c. (15/2,9/2)
d. (15,9)

C. (15/2,9/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint of two points

midpoint = (x1+x2)/2 , (y1+y2)/2

               = (17+-2)/2, (1+8)/2

               = 15/2, 9/2

The correct option is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given points are (17,1) and (−2,8).

We need to find the midpoint of given points.

Formula for midpoint :

The midpoint of the segment between the points (17,1) and (−2,8) is

The midpoint of the segment between the points (17,1) and (−2,8) is

Therefore the correct option is C.
