Chapter 5: Q. 4 (page 200)

On a number line, point Ahas a coordinate -5and B has 3. Find the coordinate of the midpoint ofAB¯.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The coordinate of the midpoint is−1.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1- Apply the concept of coordinate of midpoint.

For any line segment, the midpoint is halfway between its two endpoints. It can be calculated by taking average of the endpoints.

02

Step 2- Find the coordinate.

Find the coordinate of the midpoint is as follows:

midpointofAB¯=−5+32=−22=−1

03

Step 3- Step description.

The coordinate of the midpoint of the segment is-1 .

Therefore, the coordinate is-1 .
