The value of a and b from the coordinates are 3 and 5 respectively
Midpoint of coordinates
The formula for finding the midpoint of two coordinates is expressed as;
M(x, y) = {x1+x2/2, y1+y1/2}
Given the following coordinates
M(a, 4)
A(1,3)
B(5,b)
Using the formula
a = 1+5/2
a = 6/2
a = 3
Similarly
4 = 3+b/2
8 = 3+b
b = 8-3
b = 5
Hence the value of a and b from the coordinates are 3 and 5 respectively
