Question

The midpoint of A (-4, 2) and B(8, 5) is A.(2, 7/2) B.(-6, 3/2) C.(4, 7/2)

Answer 1

The midpoint of two points can be obtained by taking the average between the two abscissas or two ordinates. In this case ,the x-value of the midpoint is equal to (-4+8)/2 equal to 2 while the y-value of the midpoint is equalto (2+5)/2 equal to 7/2. Hence the answer is A. 

Answer 2

Midpoint = (-4+8/2 , 2+5/2)
 = (4/2, 7/2)
 = (2, 7/2)
A. (2, 7/2)
