Find the mid point of S(-5, 4) and T(-3, -2)
A
-4, 2
B
4, -2
C
-4, 1
D
4, -1
Verified Correct Answer: C.
Step-by-Step Mathematical Solution
Mid point of S(-5, 4) and T(-3, -2) is
\([\frac{1}{2}(-5 + -3), \frac{1}{2}(4 + (-2))]\)
\([\frac{1}{2}(x_1 + x_2), \frac{1}{2}(y_1 + y_2)]\)
\([\frac{1}{2}(-8), \frac{1}{2}(2)]\)
\([-4, 1]\)
