Question

What are the coordinates of the midpoint of CD¯¯¯¯¯ where C(2, −6) and D(4, 10)?

(3, 2)

(2, 3)

(3, −8)

(−1, 2) i think its A

Answer 1

The answer is (3,2) 
because of the midpoint formula 

Answer 2

Answer:

(3,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line CD where C(2, −6) and D(4, 10).

The Coordinates of the midpoint are determined by the expression:

$(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2} , \dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2})$

Using the (x,y) coordinate system

$x_1=2, x_2=4 , y_1=-6, y_2=10$

$(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2} , \dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2})=(\dfrac{2+4}{2} , \dfrac{-6+10}{2})\\=(\dfrac{6}{2} , \dfrac{4}{2})\\=(3,2)$
