Question

The coordinates of the mid point of the line segment joining P(-2,8) and Q(-6,-4) is:

Answer 1

Answer:

x=-4,y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let R be the midpoint of the line and let (x,y) be the co-ordinates of line PQ

x=X1+X2 , y=Y1+Y2

2. 2

x=-2+(-6), y=8+(-4)

2. 2

x= -2-6 , y=8-4

2. 2

x= -8.,y=4

2. 2

x= -4,y=2

Therefore (x,y)=(-4,2)
