What are the coordinates of the midpoint of ab? class=

Verified Answer :

the answer is a !!!!

Answer:

(A)(6,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of A and B are (4,-5) and (8,-1) respectively.

Let P is the mid point pf AB, then using the mid point formula, we have

\(P=(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2},\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2})\)

\(P=(\frac{4+8}{2},\frac{-5-1}{2})\)

\(P=(\frac{12}{2},\frac{-6}{2})\)

\(P=(6,-3)\)

Thus, option A is correct.
