Find the Midpoint (-5,5) and (-10,2)

$(- 5, 5)$ and $(- 10, 2)$

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

$(\frac{- 5 - 10}{2}, \frac{5 + 2}{2})$

Step 3

Subtract $10$ from $- 5$ .

$(\frac{- 15}{2}, \frac{5 + 2}{2})$

Step 4

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$(- \frac{15}{2}, \frac{5 + 2}{2})$

Step 5

Add $5$ and $2$ .

$(- \frac{15}{2}, \frac{7}{2})$
