Find the Midpoint (-5,5) , (9,-3)

$(- 5, 5)$ , $(9, - 3)$

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

$(\frac{- 5 + 9}{2}, \frac{5 - 3}{2})$

Step 3

Add $- 5$ and $9$ .

$(\frac{4}{2}, \frac{5 - 3}{2})$

Step 4

Divide $4$ by $2$ .

$(2, \frac{5 - 3}{2})$

Step 5

Subtract $3$ from $5$ .

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

Step 6

Divide $2$ by $2$ .

$(2, 1)$
