Question

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are (10, 6) and (-4, 8). (9, 1) (7, -1) (3, 7)

Answer 1

Find the average of the x values: 10+-4=6/2=3
The average of the y values: 6+8=14/2=7
The point is (3,7)

Answer 2

Answer:

Coordinates of the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are (10, 6) and (-4, 8) is (3,7).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the line segment joining the end points (10, 6) and (-4, 8).

we have to find the mid-point of the line segment.

By mid-point formula

The coordinates of mid point of line segment joining the points $(x_1,y_1)\thinspace and\thinspace (x_2,y_2)$ are

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

Now,  coordinates of the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are (10, 6) and (-4, 8) are

$(\frac{10-4}{2}, \frac{6+8}{2})=(3,7)$

Hence, mid point is (3,7)
