Answer:

(- 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(- 8, - 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = B(- 2, 10) , thus

midpoint = ( [tex]\frac{-8-2}{2}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{-6+10}{2}[/tex] ) = ([tex]\frac{-10}{2}[/tex] , [tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex] ) = (- 5, 2 )
