Question

What are the coordinates of M? Please help show steps it’s urgent!!

Answer 1

`\large\boxed{M(1,\ 8.5)}`

Explanation:

The formula of a midpoint of a segment:

`M\left((x_1+x_2)/(2),\ (y_1+y_2)/(2)\right)`

We have the points A(-8, 4) and B(10, 13). Substitute:

`M_(AB)(x,\ y)\\\\x=(-8+10)/(2)=(2)/(2)=1\\\\y=(4+13)/(2)=(17)/(2)=8.5\\\\M(1,\ 8.5)`
