Find the Midpoint (7,4) , (9,-1)

$(7, 4)$ , $(9, - 1)$

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

$(\frac{7 + 9}{2}, \frac{4 - 1}{2})$

Step 3

Add $7$ and $9$ .

$(\frac{16}{2}, \frac{4 - 1}{2})$

Step 4

Divide $16$ by $2$ .

$(8, \frac{4 - 1}{2})$

Step 5

Subtract $1$ from $4$ .

$(8, \frac{3}{2})$
