Partitioning a Line Segment

Question 12 • LJISD-TX-Geometry-1st 6WKS

Lauren would like to find the midpoint of a line segment that has endpoints at (–0.5, 3) and (4, 7.5). Which statements are true? Check all that apply.Lauren could solve [image 1] to find the x-coordinate.Lauren could solve [image 2] to find the y-coordinate.Lauren could solve [image 3] (4 + 0.5) – 0.5 to find the x-coordinate.Lauren could solve [image 4] (7.5 + 3) + 3 to find the y-coordinate.Finding the midpoint is equivalent to partitioning a line segment in a 1:1 ratio.
