M = (7, 5)
formula to find mindpoint is
[tex](\frac{x2 + x1}{2} \frac{y2 + y1}{2} )[/tex]
(6,8) = (x1, y1)
(8,2) = (x2,y2)
now substitute those into the formula!
[tex](\frac{8 + 6}{2} \frac{2 + 8}{2} )[/tex]
now solve for x & y !!
[tex]x = \frac{8 + 6}{2} = \frac{14}{2} = 7[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{2 + 8}{2} = \frac{10}{2} = 5[/tex]
so now that we have solved for x & y put it in point form and your done !!
point for is (x,y)
and thanks why the Midpoint is (7,5)
