Question

help me pleaseWhat is the midpoint of the horizontal line segment graphed below?A. (4,3)B. (8,6)C. (8,3)D. (4, 6)-1010(-2,3)$10(10, 3)10

Answer 1

`A.\text{ }(4,3)`

Step-by-step explanation

To find the midpoint of the line segment, apply the formula for the midpoint of two points:

`M=((x_1+x_2)/(2),(y_1+y_2)/(2))`

where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the two endpoints of the line segment.

Hence, the midpoint of the given line segment is:

`\begin{gathered} M=((-2+10)/(2),(3+3)/(2)) \\ \\ M=((8)/(2),(6)/(2)) \\ \\ M=(4,3) \end{gathered}`

That is the midpoint of the line segment (option A)
