Answer:

The correct answer is option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Co-ordinates of two end points of a line

[tex]G ( -3, 5)\\H (0, -2)\\[/tex]

The co-ordinates of the center point of this line are

[tex](X, Y)\\((\frac{0-(-3)}{2}) ,(\frac{(-2-5)}{2}  )\\(1.5, -3.5)[/tex]

Thus the y co-ordinate of the line GH is

[tex]-3.5\\[/tex]
