No 1 is not your answer, -1 would be your answer.

To show my work, here.

1. Expand (<span>6x −6= 4x − <span>8)
2. </span></span>Subtract <span>4x</span> from both sides (<span>6x−6−4x=−<span>8)
3. simplify 6x - 6 - 4x to 2x - 6 ( 2x - 6 = -8)
4. Add 6 to both sides ( 2x = -8 + 6)
5. simplify -8 + 6 to -2 (2x = -2)
6. divide both sides by 2 (x = -1)</span></span>

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

Ann [662]

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 $(1,2)$ .
