Question

What is the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints(-2,-2) and (4,6)

Answer 1

Answer:

The midpoint of points $(-2,-2)\ and\ (4,6)$ is $(1,2)$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are $(-2,-2)\ and\ (4,6)$. We need to find the midpoint of the line segment.

The formula of finding midpoints between the point $(x_1,y_1)\ and\ (x_2,y_2)$ is

$(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}),(\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})\ Equation(1)$

W have points $(x_1,y_1)=(-2,-2)$. And $(x_2,y_2)=(4,6)$

Let us plug the value in Equation (1)

$(\frac{-2+4}{2} ),(\frac{-2+6}{2})$

$(\frac{2}{2}),(\frac{4}{2})\\ \\(1,2)$

So, the midpoint of points $(-2,-2)\ and\ (4,6)$ is $(1,2)$.
