Question

1. what is the midpoint between the points (2, 4) and (6, 8)? (4, 6) (8, 12) (3, 5) (3, 6)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall mid - point formula

The mid - point formula between two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is $(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2},\frac{y_1 + y_2}{2})$.

Step2: Identify values of $x_1,y_1,x_2,y_2$

Here $x_1 = 2,y_1 = 4,x_2 = 6,y_2 = 8$.

Step3: Calculate x - coordinate of mid - point

$x=\frac{2 + 6}{2}=\frac{8}{2}=4$.

Step4: Calculate y - coordinate of mid - point

$y=\frac{4+8}{2}=\frac{12}{2}=6$.

Answer:

$(4,6)$
