Find the Midpoint (5,8) , (2,7)

$(5, 8)$ , $(2, 7)$

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

$(\frac{5 + 2}{2}, \frac{8 + 7}{2})$

Step 3

Add $5$ and $2$ .

$(\frac{7}{2}, \frac{8 + 7}{2})$

Step 4

Add $8$ and $7$ .

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

Step 5
