Solution

Step 1

the point that splits segment AB in half if point A is located at (4, 3) and point B is located at (−2, 6).

Step 2

Use the mid-point formula


\begin{gathered} ((x_1+x_2)/(2),\text{ }(y_1+y_2)/(2)) \\ x_1\text{ = 4 , }x_2\text{ = -2} \\ y_1\text{ = 3},y_2\text{ = 6} \\ ((4+(-2))/(2),\text{ }(-3+6)/(2)) \\ =\text{ \lparen1 , 4.5\rparen} \end{gathered}

Final answer

x = 1
