Question

What is the midpoint of a segment with endpoints at (-4, -8) and (8,10)?

A. (-6, -9)
B. (-6, 1)
C. (2, -9)
D. (2, 1)

Answer 1

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

(8+-4/2, 10+-8/2)

(2, 1)

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is,D (2, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition of midpoint:

The midpoint of a line segment is the center point in geometry. It is the centroid of both the segment and the ends, and it is equidistant from both. It cuts the portion in half.

Formula:

The midpoint of a segment in n-dimensional space whose endpoints are,

A=$(a_{1} ,a_{2},..............a_{n} )$ and B=$(b_{1} ,b_{2} ,...........b_{n} )$ is given by,

=A+B/2

That is, the $i^{th}$  coordinate of the midpoint (i = 1, 2, ..., n) is,

$a_{i} +b_{i} /2$

According, to the question:

= (8+-4/2, 10+-8/2)

= (2, 1)

The midpoint of segment of endpoint is (2, 1)
