Question

find the coordinates if the midpoint of the line segment whose endpoints have the given coordinates (2,4) and (6 ,8)

Answer 1

if you mean find the coordinates "of" the midpoint then the solution is

Explanation:

(x1+x2)/2 and (y1+y2)/2

so

(2+6)/2=8/2=4 and (4+8)/2=12/2=6

so the coordinates of the midpoint of the given segment is

(4,6)

Answer 2

`m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) \\ (8 - 4)/(6 - 2) \\ = (4)/(4) \\ m = 1`
