To determine the coordinates of the midpoint M for the line segment with endpoints Q(6,5) and R(4,7), we can use the midpoint formula:
The midpoint formula is:
M = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2)
Here, (x1, y1) are the coordinates for point Q and (x2, y2) are the coordinates for point R.
For Q(6,5) and R(4,7), we can plug in the values as follows:
M = ((6 + 4)/2, (5 + 7)/2) M = (10/2, 12/2) M = (5, 6)
So, the coordinates of the midpoint M are (5, 6).
