Answer:

ANSWER

M=(−72,12).

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint for two points P=(x1,y1) and Q=(x2,y2) is

M=(x1+x22,y1+y22).

We have that x1=−3, y1=−1, x2=−4, y2=2.

So, M=(−3+(−4)2,−1+(2)2)=(−72,12)

Answer:

The answer is

( - 3.5 , 0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint M of two endpoints of a line segment can be found by using the formula

[tex]M = ( \frac{x1 + x2}{2} , \: \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )[/tex]

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(−3,−1) and (−4,2)

The midpoint is

[tex]M = ( \frac{ - 3 - 4}{2} \: , \: \frac{ - 1 + 2}{2} ) \\ = ( - \frac{7}{2} \: , \: \frac{1}{2} )[/tex]

We have the final answer as

( - 3.5 , 0.5)

Hope this helps you
