Answer:

A.
(-3, -2)

Explanation:

Given:

(4, -10) and (-10, 6)

Required:

Midpoint of the two endpoints

Solution:

Apply the midpoint formula,


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

Where,

(4, -10) = (x_1, y_1)

(-10, 6) = (x_2, y_2)

Plug in the values


M((4 + (-10))/(2), (-10 + 6)/(2))


M((-6)/(2), (-4)/(2))


M(-3, -2)
