The coordinate of the midpoint of the segment is given by the average of the coordinates of the endpoints.
Midpoint = (Endpoint1 + Endpoint2)/2
Midpoint = (-9 + 6)/2
Midpoint = -3/2
Therefore, the coordinate of the midpoint of the segment is -1.5.
A line segment on a number line has its endpoints at –9 and 6. Find the coordinate of the midpoint of the segment.
