The midpoint of a line segment is the point that is exactly halfway between the endpoints.
To find the midpoint of the line segment connecting (-4, 6) and (8, 2), we can use the midpoint formula:
Midpoint = ((x1 + x2) / 2, (y1 + y2) / 2)
where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the endpoints.
Plugging in the values, we get:
Midpoint = ((-4 + 8) / 2, (6 + 2) / 2) = (2, 4)
Therefore, the midpoint of the line segment connecting (-4, 6) and (8, 2) is (2, 4).
