Find the midpoint of (4,5) & (2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint is the middle point of a line segment that bisects (splits into 2 equal parts) the line segment. When we calculate the midpoint, we basically find the average of the x-coordinate, then the average of the y-coordinates. The formula is:

In this formula, (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the endpoints of the segment.

We are given the points (4,5) and (2,2). Match the value and the corresponding variable.

Substitute these values into the formula.

Solve the numerators.

Divide.

The midpoint of the line segment is (3, 7/2) or (3, 3.5).

c. 4 and 1/2 pounds is the answer! : )
