Answer: last option.

Explanation:

Given two points:


(x_1,y_1) and
(x_2,y_2)

You can find the midpoint between them by using the following formula:


M=((x_1+x_2)/(2),(y_1+y_2)/(2))

Then, given the point (1, 4) and the point (2, 3), you can identify that:


x_1=1\\x_2=2\\y_1=4\\y_2=3

Therefore, the final step is to substitute values into the formula:


M=((1+2)/(2),(4+3)/(2))\\\\M=((3)/(2),(7)/(2))
