Question

Find the midpoint of line AB if A(-3, 8) and B(-7, -6)

Answer 1

3.5 is answer

Explanation:

the formula for midpoint is Y2-Y1/X2-X1.

Answer 2

(-5, 1)

Explanation:

Midpoint formula is (
`(x_(1) + x_(2) )/(2)`,
`(y_(1) + y_(2) )/(2)`) and let's make A(
`x_(2), y_(1)`) and B(
`x_(2), y_(2)`)

Now let's plug in the points

`((-3 - 7)/(2), (8 - 6)/(2))`

`((-10)/(2), (2)/(2))`

(-5, 1)
