Answer:

(0,5)

Explanation:

Use the midpoint formula to find the midpoint of the line segment.

(x1+x2/2,y1+y2/2)

Substitute in the values for (x1,y1)and (x2,y2).

(-2+2/2,
(4+6)/(2))

Cancel the common factor of −2+2 and 2.

(−1+1,
(4+6)/(2))

Add −1 and 1.

(0,
(4+6)/(2))

Cancel the common factor of 4+6 and 2.

(0, 2+3)

Add 2 and 3.

(0,5)

(Sorry, some of the fractions weren't working)
