Find the midpoint of the line segment with end points at (-6, 2) and (3, 8)

-3/2,5 are the two midpoints of (-6,2) and (3,8)

Mid point is (-3/2, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

The mid point of a line segment with end points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by

((x₁ + x₂)/2 , (y₁ + y₂)/2)

To find the midpoint

Here (x₁, y₁) = (-6, 2) and (x₂, y₂) = (3, 8)

x = ((x₁ + x₂)/2  = (-6 + 3)/2 = -3/2

y = (y₁ + y₂)/2) = (2 + 8)/2 = 10/2 = 5

Mid point is (-3/2, 5)

one that is bigger than 3 1/2
