Answer:

Explanation:

The center of the circle whose diameter has endpoints (18, -13) and (4, -3) will be the midpoint of the coordinates.

The ormua for calculating mid point is expressed as;

M(X,Y) ={(x21+x2/2, y1+y2/2}

X= x1+x2/2

Y = y1+y2/2

From the coordinates

x1 = 18 x2 = 4

X= 18+4/2

X = 22/2

X = 11

y1= -13, y2= -3

Y = -3-13/2

Y = -16/2

Y = -8

Hence the required centre will be at (11,-8)
