use the formula y-y1=m(x-x1)
Given two coordinates (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) The midpoint is ( ((x2+x1)/2) , ((y2+y1)/2) )
Oh, don't you worry, friend! When using the slope formula, whether you do (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) or (y1-y2)/(x1-x2), the answer will be the same! It's all about the difference in vertical and horizontal values, and as long as you stay consistent in your calculations, you'll find the slope just fine. Just trust your instincts and enjoy the process of solving the equation.
A statement that two ratios are equal is called a proportion in math. An example of a proportion is 1/2 equals 2/4. In this proportion, if you cross multiply, you find that 4 x1 is equal to 2 x 2, which is a true statement or proportion.
midpoint=(X1 + X2, Y1 + Y2)divide both of those by 2.X1 + X2 divided by 2 should give you the co ordinate for X.
