Find the Midpoint (-2,-7) , (-1,7)

$(- 2, - 7)$ , $(- 1, 7)$

Step 1

Use the midpoint formula to find the midpoint of the line segment.

$(\frac{x_{1} + x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1} + y_{2}}{2})$

Step 2

Substitute in the values for $(x_{1}, y_{1})$ and $(x_{2}, y_{2})$ .

$(\frac{- 2 - 1}{2}, \frac{- 7 + 7}{2})$

Step 3

Subtract $1$ from $- 2$ .

$(\frac{- 3}{2}, \frac{- 7 + 7}{2})$

Step 4

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$(- \frac{3}{2}, \frac{- 7 + 7}{2})$

Step 5

Add $- 7$ and $7$ .

$(- \frac{3}{2}, \frac{0}{2})$

Step 6

Divide $0$ by $2$ .

$(- \frac{3}{2}, 0)$
