What number is right in the middle of -6 and 4? |dw:1340268224474:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

choises are (-1, 3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(-5, 3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(-2, 3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1340269636895:dw| So, AO = BO (Radius) Hence, By mid point formula , \[(4-6)/2 = x ... and (1+5)/2 = y .. Therefore, x=-1 .. and y=3 \] Thus, Coordinates of the center are - (-1,3) .. =)
