Question

The midpoint of the segment joining A(-2, 8) and B (-6, -4) is 

a) (2, 6) 

b) (4, 2) 

c) (-4, 2) 

d) (- 4, - 6) 

​

Answer 1

Answer:

c is the correct answer.

Answer 2

Answer:

(-4,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Mid point = $\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }{2}$, $\frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2}$

Therefore required mid points are $x=\frac{-2+(-6)}{2}$$=-4$

$y=\frac{8+ (-4)}{2}= 2$

Therefore required co-ordinates= (-4,2)
