Think of the midpoint as the “halfway point” of a line segment, and use the Midpoint Formula to calculate it. Two endpoints of the line segment are needed to find the midpoint using the formula.

- 7=1/2(6+x) => 2(7)=6+x => 14=6+x => 8=x -2=1/2(-6+y) => 2(-2)=-6+y => -4=-6+y => 2=y therefore the other point would be (8,2)
The midpoint formula is basically an average. You add the two x-values and divide by 2. You add the two y-values and divide by 2. This gives you the coordinates of the midpoint (the point located half-way between the original two points).
- I believe you would simply find the differences in x and y from the midpoint to the one endpoint, multiply them by two (giving yourself the two sid...

- Substitute for y to get x = 4x - x^2 then move everything to one side, factor, and solve. Try it and if you still need help, ask again.

Learn how to find the midpoint of a line segment using the formula (x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2, where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the endpoints. See examples, derivation, and construction of midpoint.
What is the midpoint formula? The formula gives the midpoint of the points ( x 1 , y 1 ) and ( x 2 , y 2 ) in the coordinate plane: ( x 1 + x 2 2 , y 1 + y 2 2 )
Learn how to find the midpoint of a line segment in the coordinate plane using the formula M = ( (x1 + x2) / 2, (y1 + y2) / 2). See an example with coordinates and a graph.
