Find the Midpoint (-6,-6) , (3,5)

$(- 6, - 6)$ , $(3, 5)$

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

$(\frac{- 6 + 3}{2}, \frac{- 6 + 5}{2})$

Step 3

Add $- 6$ and $3$ .

$(\frac{- 3}{2}, \frac{- 6 + 5}{2})$

Step 4

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$(- \frac{3}{2}, \frac{- 6 + 5}{2})$

Step 5

Add $- 6$ and $5$ .

$(- \frac{3}{2}, \frac{- 1}{2})$

Step 6

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

$(- \frac{3}{2}, - \frac{1}{2})$
