A)M=(2,5)

1) The midpoint of a line segment can be found by taking the average of both endpoints. So in this question, we can write out the following:


\begin{gathered} M=(x_1+x_2)/(2).(y_1+y_2)/(2) \\ M=(-2+6)/(2),(7+3)/(2) \\ M=(2,5) \end{gathered}

As we can see the midpoint divides the line segment into two halves.
