The point of Henry's house is closer to the point of the middle school than Marcy's house. One way to justify is through the distance formula.
The distance between the middle school and Marcy's house is 10, while the distance between the middle school and Henry's house is 5. 
Henry's house is exactly 1/2 the distance from Marcy's house to the middle school.
