We have to find the slope for the lines AC and DB that are:


\begin{gathered} ac=(-2-3)/(-1-4)=-(5)/(3) \\ bd=(3--2)/(2--7)=(5)/(9) \end{gathered}

so we have that the equations are:


\begin{gathered} 5x+3y=-11 \\ 5x-9y=-17 \end{gathered}

having that we get that


-12y=-6\rightarrow y=0.5\rightarrow5x+1.5=-11\rightarrow x=-(12.5)/(5)=-2.5

so the answer is (-2.5,0.5)
