Question: 1 / 400

What is the midpoint of (3, 9) and (7, 3)?

(3, 3)

(5, 5)

The midpoint of two points is the center point between them, determined by finding the average of their coordinates. In this case, the given points are (3, 9) and (7, 3). To find the midpoint, we need to find the average of the x-coordinates and the average of the y-coordinates. The average of the x-coordinates is (3+7)/2 = 10/2 = 5. The average of the y-coordinates is (9+3)/2 = 12/2 = 6. Therefore, the midpoint is (5, 6), which is the only option that satisfies both the average of the x-coordinates and the average of the y-coordinates. Option A (3,3) and option C (7,6) do not satisfy both averages, while option D (10,12) does not
