midpoint formula is:

for x : (x1+x2) / 2

for y : (y1+y2) / 2

3-1 / 2 =>1

4-2 / 2 =>1

the midpoint is (1,1)

Take the averages of the x and y values:

x = [3 + (-1)] / 2 = 2/2 = 1

y = [4 + (-2)] / 2 = 2/2 = 1

The midpoint is point (1, 1), answer number 1.

(3, 4) and (–1, –2)

3 and -1 are 4 apart so 1 is the mid point, 2 away from each

4 and -2 are 6 apart so 1 is the mid point, 3 away from each

1 becomes X and 2 is Y

(1, 1) is midpoint of (3, 4) and (–1, –2)

The equation for midpoint is (x1 + x2/ 2), (y1 + y2/2)

Plug in the coordinates.

(3 + (-1)/2), (4 + (-2)/2) Simplify the expression

(2/2), (2/2)

The coordinates for the midpoint of this line is (1,1).
