Answer:

M (1,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

A(-8,4) , B(10,6)

By mid-point formula,

M [(x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2]

M ( -8+10/2 , 4+6/2)

M (2/2 , 10/2)

M (1,5)

Answer:

<h2>This equation has no natural roots.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x^2+x-5=0\\\\\text{Use the quadratic formula for}\ ax^2+bx+c=0\\\\x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\\text{For the given equation:}\\\\a=3,\ b=1,\ c=-5\\\\b^2-4ac=1^2-4(3)(-5)=1+60=61\\\\x=\dfrac{-1\pm\sqrt{61}}{(2)(3)}=\dfrac{-1\pm\sqrt{61}}{6}\notin\mathbb{N}$
