Answer:

M (- 5, 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given endpoints (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) then the midpoint is

( [tex]\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }{2}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2}[/tex] )

Here (x₁, y₁ ) = A (- 2, 8 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = B (- 8, - 4 ) , then

midpoint = ( [tex]\frac{-2-8}{2}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{8-4}{2}[/tex] ) = ( [tex]\frac{-10}{2}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex] ) = (- 5, 2 )
