Answer:

The answer is

( 6 , 4 )

Explanation:

The midpoint M of two endpoints of a line segment can be found by using the formula


M = ( (x_1 + x_2)/(2) , \: (y_1 + y_2)/(2) )\\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(3, 2) and (9, 6)

The midpoint is


M = ( (3 + 9)/(2) \: , \: (2 + 6)/(2) ) \\ = ( (12)/(2) \: , \: (8)/(2) )

We have the final answer as

( 6 , 4 )

Hope this helps you
