Think. Use the midpoint formula..

But you forgot or don’t know it. So how can I find it ??

The midpoint is the point in the middle of a line. It makes sense to add the x coordinates divided by two and add the y coordinates divide it by two to get the coordinates in the middle of that line.

The answer is (6,-12). Message me if you don’t understand
