Question

if u know this question, answer as possible with explanation ​

Answer 1

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

P (a 2, 4) is the mid-point of the line segment joining points A (-6, 5) and B (-2, 3). Thus, the value of a is -8.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Midpoint of the line segment AB = P= ( a/2, 4 )

And the points A (x1, y1) = ( -6, 5 ) ; B (X2, y2) = ( - 2 , 3 )

Therefore,

By using formula,

P = [ x1 + x2 / 2 , [ y1 + y2 / 2 ]

( a /2, 4 ) = [ - 6 -2 / 2, 5 + 3 / 2 ]

( a / 2, 4 ) = [ - 8 / 2, 8 / 2 ]

( a / 2 , 4 ) = ( - 4 , 4 )

Therefore, a / 2 = - 4 ⇒ a = -4 × 2 ⇒ a = - 8 is the answer.
