Question

a line segment has the the end points p -9, -6 and q -3, 6. find the coordinates of its midpoint M. write the coordinates as decimals are integers

Answer 1

Given data:

The first end point on the line segment is p(-9, -6).

The second end point on the line segment is q(-3, 6).

The coordinate of mid point is,

`\begin{gathered} x=(-9-3)/(2) \\ =-6 \\ y=(-6+6)/(2) \\ =0 \end{gathered}`

Thus, the coordinate of mid point is M(-6, 0).
