Answer:

The midpoint is (10, 4)

Explanation:

To find the midpoint, you add the x value from the first coordinate and the x value from the second coordinate, then divide by two to get the x coordinate of the midpoint. You do the the same exact thing with the two y values to find the y coordinate of the midpoint.

2 + 18 = 20

20 / 2 = 10

1 + 7 = 8

8 / 2 = 4

(10, 4)

Hope this helps!
