Question

What's the midpoint of a line segment joining the points (5, –4) and (–13, 12)?
Question 3 options:

A)

(–4, 4)

B)

(–4, 8)

C)

(4, 4)

D)

(9, 4)

Answer 1

when we find out the mid point so formula is.

x = x1+x2 / 2

y = y1 + y2 /2

now ,

x = -13 + 5/ / 2. =. -4

y = 12 - 4 /. 2. =. 4

. answer is ( -4 , 4 )

Answer 2

Solution :-

(5, –4),(–13, 12)

x1 = 5, y1= - 4, x2= - 13, y2= 12

Let,

Co-ordinates of midpoint be (x, y)

$midpoint \: formula \\ x = \frac{x1 + x2}{2} \\ x = \frac{5 + ( - 13)}{2} \\ x = \frac{ - 8}{2} = - 4 \\ y = \frac{y1 + y2}{2} \\ y = \frac{ - 4 + 12}{2 } \\ y = \frac{8}{2} = 4$

The coordinats of midpoint of the line (5, –4) and (–13, 12) is (-4,4)

Thanks for the question bro ❤️❣️✅✌️✍️
