Answer:

(5, 6)

Explanation:


\text{The formula of a midpoint between two points:}\\\\M\bigg((x_1+x_2)/(2),\ (y_1+y_2)/(2)\bigg)\\\\\text{We have}\ A(2,\ 3)\ \text{and}\ B(8,\ 9).\\\\\text{Substitute:}\\\\M_(AB)\bigg((2+8)/(2),\ (3+9)/(2)\bigg)\\\\M_(AB)\bigg((10)/(2),\ (12)/(2)\bigg)\\\\M_(AB)(5,\ 6)
