Question

The endpoints of QA are Q (-8,6) and A (-5,3). What the coordinates of the midpoint of Q4 ?

A (-6.5, 4.5)
B (-1.5, 4.5)
D 17, 4.5)​

Answer 1

The answer is A your welcome

Answer 2

A

Explanation:

Given endpoints (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) then the midpoint is

(
`(x_(1)+x_(2) )/(2)`,
`(y_(1)+y_(2) )/(2)` )

Here (x₁, y₁ ) = Q(- 8, 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = A(- 5, 3) , then

midpoint = (
`(-8-5)/(2)`,
`(6+3)/(2)` ) = (
`(-13)/(2)`,
`(9)/(2)` ) = (- 6.5, 4.5 ) → A
