question
find the midpoint of the segment with the following endpoints.
(6, 4) and (0, 10)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall mid - point formula

The mid - point formula for two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is $(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2},\frac{y_1 + y_2}{2})$. Here $x_1=6,y_1 = 4,x_2=0,y_2 = 10$.

Step2: Calculate x - coordinate of mid - point

$x=\frac{6 + 0}{2}=\frac{6}{2}=3$.

Step3: Calculate y - coordinate of mid - point

$y=\frac{4+10}{2}=\frac{14}{2}=7$.

Answer:

$(3,7)$
