Point T, the midpoint of segment RS, can be found using the formulas x = (1/2) (6 – 2) + 2 and y = (1/2) (4 – 6) + 6. What are the coordinates of point T?

T(3, 2)
T(3, 4)
T(4, 5)
T(4, 7)

T(x,y) is given by

x = (1/2) (6 – 2) + 2 and y = (1/2) (4 – 6) + 6

so

x = (1/2) (4) + 2 and y = (1/2) (-2) + 6

x = 2 + 2 and y = -1 + 6

x = 4 and y =5

so T(4,5)

ans is C
