Question

Where is the midpoint located if a line segment has the endpoints of (-4, -2) and (-1, -6)? *
A. (2, -10)
B. (-2.5, -4)
C. (-3, -3.5)
D. (-1.5, 2)

Answer 1

Answer:

B. (-2.5, -4)

Step-by-step explanation

x = 1/2(x^1 + x ^2)

x = 1/2(-4 + -1)

x = 1/2(-5)

x = -2.5

y = 1/2(y^1 + y^2)

y = 1/2(-2 + -6)

y = 1/2(-8)

y = -4

(-2.5, -4)
