Answer:

(3,5)

Explanation:

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

x1= -4 , x2= 10 , y1= 3 , y2= 7

M= (-4+10)/2 , (3+7)/2

M= (3, 5)

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

For the x value of the midpoint, you add the x values and divide by 2. For the y value of the midpoint, you add the y values and divide by 2.

First we add the x values.

-4+10=6

And divide by 2.

6/2=3

Then we add the y values.

3+7=10

And divide by 2.

10/2=5

Therefore, our midpoint is (3,5).

Have a wonderful day! :D
