Question

R(-2,8) S(10,6) midpoint

Answer 1

Answer:

M = (4,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

If points are (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂), then the midpoints are given by :

$M=(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2})$

We have,

x₁ = -2, y₁ = 8, x₂ = 10 and y₂ = 6

So,

$M=(\dfrac{-2+10}{2},\dfrac{8+6}{2})\\\\=(\dfrac{8}{2},\dfrac{14}{2})\\\\=(4,7)$

So, the midpoints of the given points are (4,7).
