Question 1 [Explained]

Consider two points, P and Q, on a coordinate plane. P is located at (-3, 2), while Q is at (15, -8).

 

We need to determine the coordinates of point M, which is the exact middle point between P and Q on the line segment that joins these two points.

Question 1 [a] [Explanation]

Determine the coordinates of point M.

 

This question asks for the specific location or position of a point labeled M in a given context, likely related to geometry or a mathematical diagram.

Question 1 [b] [Explanation]

Consider a line (L) that is perpendicular to the line segment ([PQ]) and passes through the point (M).

 

Determine the slope of the line (L).

 

This means you need to find the gradient of the line (L) that is perpendicular to ([PQ]) and goes through (M).
