Question

Find the coordinates of the midpoint between (–1, 2) and (3, –6).

A)(-2, 1)B)(-1, 2)C)(-1, -2)D)(1, -2)E)(2, -1)

​

Answer 1

option D

(1, -2)

Explanation:

Given in the question are coordinates,

(–1, 2) and (3, –6)

x1 = -1

x2 = 3

y1 =2

y2 = -6

Formula to calculate midpoint

`(x1+x2)/(2)`,
`(y1+y2)/(2)`

`(-1+3)/(2),(2-6)/(2)`

`(2)/(2),(-4)/(2)`

(1,-2)
