Question 32
Coordinate GeometryThe midpoint of P(x, y) and Q (8,6) is (5,8). Find x and y.
- A.(2,10)
- B.(2,8)
- C.(2,12)
- D.(2,6)
Show the answer and explanation
Answer: A ((2,10))
Explanation
(x + 8)/2 = 5 gives x = 2, and (y + 6)/2 = 8 gives y = 10.
The midpoint of P(x, y) and Q (8,6) is (5,8). Find x and y.
Answer: A ((2,10))
(x + 8)/2 = 5 gives x = 2, and (y + 6)/2 = 8 gives y = 10.
