The correct Answer is:
To find the coordinates of the midpoint between the two points (6, 0) and (0, 8), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the coordinates of the points. The coordinates of the two points are: - Point A: (6, 0) - Point B: (0, 8) ### Step 2: Use the midpoint formula. The formula for finding the midpoint (M) of two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by: \[ M = \left( \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} \right) \] ### Step 3: Substitute the coordinates into the formula. Here, we have: - \(x_1 = 6\), \(y_1 = 0\) - \(x_2 = 0\), \(y_2 = 8\) Substituting these values into the midpoint formula: \[ M = \left( \frac{6 + 0}{2}, \frac{0 + 8}{2} \right) \] ### Step 4: Calculate the x-coordinate of the midpoint. Calculating the x-coordinate: \[ \frac{6 + 0}{2} = \frac{6}{2} = 3 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the y-coordinate of the midpoint. Calculating the y-coordinate: \[ \frac{0 + 8}{2} = \frac{8}{2} = 4 \] ### Step 6: Write the coordinates of the midpoint. Thus, the coordinates of the midpoint M are: \[ M = (3, 4) \] ### Final Answer: The coordinates of the midpoint are (3, 4). ---
