Does adding
and then dividing by 2 help you find the find midpoint of line segment
?
(1 point)
7 + 2 J¯¯¯¯K¯¯¯¯
Yes because (7 + 2) ÷ 2 calculates the average, or midpoint, of the y-coordinates of points J and K.
Yes because (7 + 2) ÷ 2 calculates the average, or midpoint, of the x-coordinates of points J and K.
No because 7 should be added to 3, then multiplied by 2 to find the midpoint.
No because (7, 2) is not the coordinate of point J or K.

Yes — because the midpoint formula averages coordinates: midpoint x = (x1 + x2)/2. If the x-coordinates are 7 and 2, (7 + 2)/2 = 4.5.
