Answer:

Option B --> (8, -5)

Explanation:

To find the midpoint, we use the equation-


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

The coordinates given were (8, -2) (8, -8)

x1= 8,

x2 = 8

y1 = -2

y2= -8

Substituting these values in the equation:-


(8+ 8)/(2) , (-2 + -8)/(2)


(16)/(2) , (-10)/(2)

Coordinates of midpoint will be ---> (8, -5)

The answer is B

-5 is between -2 and -8.

If you are unable to do this problem, make a graph and see where the midpoint is. Even imagine the graph if necessary.

Have a great day :)
