Question

find the coordinate of the midpoint p of the line segment joining a(-4,2) and b(6,2)

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

a (-4,2) , b (6,2)

P is the midpoint of ab

P (x,y)=((x2-x1)/2), ((y2-y1)/2)

P (x,y) =((6-(-4))/2), ((2-2)/2)

P (x,y)=((6+4)/2), ((2-2)/2)

P (x,y)=(10/2), (0/2)

P (x,y) =(5),(0)

Thus, midpoint of ab =p (5,0)
