Find the Midpoint (-4,-7) , (5,6)

$(- 4, - 7)$ , $(5, 6)$

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 $(x_{2}, y_{2})$ .

$(\frac{- 4 + 5}{2}, \frac{- 7 + 6}{2})$

Step 3

Add $- 4$ and $5$ .

$(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{- 7 + 6}{2})$

Step 4

Add $- 7$ and $6$ .

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

Step 5

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

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