To find the coordinate of the midpoint, we can use the formula:
Midpoint = (Endpoint 1 + Endpoint 2) / 2
In this case, Endpoint 1 is -2 and Endpoint 2 is 12.
Midpoint = (-2 + 12) / 2
Midpoint = 10 / 2
Midpoint = 5
Therefore, the coordinate of the midpoint of the line segment PB is 5.
Enter your answer and show all the steps that you use to solve this problem in the space provided. PB is a line segment on a number line. It has endpoints at -2 and 12. What is the coordinate of its midpoint?
