Answer:
M = (4,7)
Step-by-step explanation:
If points are (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂), then the midpoints are given by :
[tex]M=(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]
We have,
x₁ = -2, y₁ = 8, x₂ = 10 and y₂ = 6
So,
[tex]M=(\dfrac{-2+10}{2},\dfrac{8+6}{2})\\\\=(\dfrac{8}{2},\dfrac{14}{2})\\\\=(4,7)[/tex]
So, the midpoints of the given points are (4,7).
