Find the Midpoint (9,7) , (-3,-5)

$(9, 7)$ , $(- 3, - 5)$

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

$(\frac{9 - 3}{2}, \frac{7 - 5}{2})$

Step 3

Subtract $3$ from $9$ .

$(\frac{6}{2}, \frac{7 - 5}{2})$

Step 4

Divide $6$ by $2$ .

$(3, \frac{7 - 5}{2})$

Step 5

Subtract $5$ from $7$ .

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

Step 6

Divide $2$ by $2$ .

$(3, 1)$
