Anyone whos great at math?!?!?!?!!? the question is I ALSO NEED TO SHOW MY WORKK PLAESE

-19

Step-by-step explanation:

x= -5       y = -2

-x^2 - 4xy + y^2

- -5^2 -4(-5 x -2) -2^2                      Plug in

+ 5^2 -4(-5 x -2) -2^2                      Change the signs for - -5

  5^2 - 2^2 - 4(10)                           Place Liked Terms together

  25 - 4 - 40                                    Subtract

      21 - 40

         -19

for finding the midpoint of any given 2 pair of points simply add the respective x coordinates with other x coordinate and the y coordinate with other y coordinate and divide them by 2

in your question it will be :

(3+1)/2 for the x coordinate of mid point i.e 2

[8+(-4)]/2 for the y coordinate of midpoint i.e 2

so coordinates of mid point of points (3,8) and (1,-4) will be (2,2)
