Question

what is the midpoint of (overline{fb})?
point a
point g
point h
point l

Explanation:

Step1: Find the coordinates of points F and B

From the number line, the coordinate of point \( F\) is \( - 2\), and the coordinate of point \( B\) is \(8\).

Step2: Use the mid - point formula

The mid - point formula for two points \(x_1\) and \(x_2\) on a number line is \(M=\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}\). Here \(x_1=-2\) and \(x_2 = 8\). So \(M=\frac{-2 + 8}{2}=\frac{6}{2}=3\).

Answer:

point \(L\) (since the coordinate of point \(L\) is \(3\))
