Question

Find the midpoint of a line segment with endpoints located at (-6, -10) and (4, -4). *

A. (-1, -7)
B. (14, 2)
C. (-5, -3)
D. (-8, 0)

Answer 1

A. (-1, -7)

Explanation:

x = 1/2(x^1 + x^2)

x = 1/2(-6 + 4)

x = 1/2(-2)

x = -1

y = 1/2(y^1 + y^2)

y = 1/2(-10 + -4)

y = 1/2(-14)

y = -7

(-1, -7)
