Find the coordinates of the midpoint M of the pencil.

The correct answer is: (5, 4).

• Step by step explanation:

○        Given:
The endpoints of the pencil are A (4,0) R  (6, 8 ).
M is the midpoint of the pencil.
○        Step 1:
○        Let the midpoint M be (x, y)
○        As we know, the midpoint divides the line segment in two equal parts, and midpoint of line are given by 
So,
Coordinates of Midpoint of  M be:

• Final Answer:

Hence, the coordinates of the midpoint M is (5, 4).
