The answer is:  "1" .
________________________________
Explanation:
________________________
To start, we find this coordinates of this "point that splits the segment in half", known as the "half-point"; or, even more formally, known as the "midpoint",  using the following "midpoint formula"; in which "M" refers to the "midpoint":
____________________________________
Given two coordinates (points) on a (straight line segment): 
______________________________
(x₁, y₁) ; AND:  (x₂ ,y₂ ) ;  

The midpoint , "M":
___________________________________
M = (x₁ + x₂) / 2  , (y₁ + y₂) / 2  ;
____________________________________

in which:   " (x₁ + x₂) / 2 " ; refers to the "x-coordinate" of the midpoint;
 
AND:        "(y₁ + y ₂) / 2 " ; refers to the "y-coordinate" of the midpoint;
_______________________________________________________
       If given two particular points, use can use point to start with, as long os the second one is used for the next one:
___________________________________________________
So, given:  Point A:  (4,3) ;  4 = x₁ ; 3 = y₁ ;
                  Pont B:  (-2,6)   -2 = x₂ ; 6 = y₂ ;
___________________________________________________
 The midpoint , "M":
___________________________________
M = (x₁ + x₂) / 2  , (y₁ + y₂) / 2 = ?  Substitute the values:
_______________________________________________
M = [4 +(-2)] / 2 , (3 + 6) / 2 ;
  
→    [(4 <span>− 2) / 2 ] , [(3+6) / 2 ] ;

</span>→ (2/2), (9/2) ; 

→ (1, 4.5)
__________________________________
The midpoint is: (1, 4.5).  This very question asks to find the "x-value" of the midpoint, which is "1" .  (Since:  x =1, y = 4.5).   
________________________________________
So, the answer is: "1" .

When the ice age ended the land once covered by ice was mostly?
Rudik [331]

Answer:

Exposed

Explanation:

When the ice age ended, the glaciers slowly retreated until they reached their current extent limited to the polar regions and alpine mountain climates. The land covered by ice had also been depressed by the weight of the massive glaciers and consequently began to rebound in the centuries following the retreat of the ice sheets. These once frozen lands also turned into large boreal forests with rich ecosystems.
