A line segment has the endpoints P(-7, 6) and Q(-3, 9). Find the coordinates of its

midpoint M
Write the coordinates as decimals or integers.

Answer 1

`MP= (-5,7.5 )`

Explanation:

`MP= ((x_1+x_2)/(2) )((y_1+y_2)/(2) )`

`MP= ((-7+-3)/(2) )((6+9)/(2) )` -7+-3= -10 6+9=15

`MP= ((-10)/(2) )((15)/(2) )` -10/2=-5 15/2=7.5

`MP= (-5,7.5)`
