1. and 2. are correct

Both of your midpoints are wrong.

To get the midpoint, ADD the x's and divide by 2, then add the y's and divide by 2

so
3. for the x's (-7 + (-1))/2 = -4
for the y's (7+7)/2 = 7
midpoint is (-4,7) which would be c)

try 4. the same way and you should get (3,5)
Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Find the distance between the two points.

(1, –2), (10, –4)
