Step-by-step explanation:
A( 4,-8) and B (-6,-2)
Mid point of AB
(x, y) = {(4-6)/2 , (-8-2)/2}
= ( -2/2 , -10/2)
= (-1 , -5 )
Therefore mid point of AB is (-1 , -5 )
The coordinate of the midpoint of AB will be (-1,-5) so option (B) will be correct.
A pair of numbers that employ the horizontal and vertical distinctions from the two reference axes to represent a point's placement on a coordinate plane. typically expressed by the x-value and y-value pairs (x,y).
Coordinates are always written in the form of small brackets the first term will be x and the second term will be y.
Given,
A(4, -8) and B(-6, -2).
The midpoint between two coordinates is given by
(sum of x coordinate/2, the sum of y coordinate/2, )
So,
x = (4 - 6)/2 = -1
y = (-8 - 2)/2 = -5
Hence, the coordinate of the midpoint of AB will be (-1,-5)
