What is the midpoint formula and how do you find the midpoint between

The video tutorial explains how to find the midpoint and distance between two points on a coordinate plane. It introduces the concept of differentiating between two sets of coordinates using subscripts and demonstrates the midpoint formula through an example. The tutorial concludes with a brief introduction to calculating the total distance between points, which will be covered after a break.

Why is it important to differentiate between two sets of coordinates when finding the midpoint?

• To change the values of the coordinates

• To make the calculation more complex

• To eliminate the need for a formula

• To avoid confusion between the coordinates

What is the formula for finding the midpoint between two points?

• (X1 * X2) / 2, (Y1 * Y2) / 2

• (X1 / X2) / 2, (Y1 / Y2) / 2

• (X1 - X2) / 2, (Y1 - Y2) / 2

• (X1 + X2) / 2, (Y1 + Y2) / 2

How do you find the middle point between two numbers on a number line?

• Subtract the smaller number from the larger number

• Multiply the two numbers and divide by two

• Add the two numbers and divide by two

• Divide the larger number by the smaller number

In the example provided, what is the calculated midpoint?

• -3, 6

• 1.5, -3

• 3, -1.5

• -1.5, 3

What concept is introduced at the end of the video that will be covered later?

• Calculating the total distance

• Finding the slope

• Determining the area

• Identifying the coordinates
