Answer:

Midpoint =
(3, 6)

Explanation:

Use the Midpoint Formula to help you determine the midpoint of the two following points:


((x_(1) + x_(2))/(2), (y_(1) + y_(2))/(2))

(where
(x_(1), y_(1)) is the first point and
(x_(2), y_(2)) is the second point)

-Apply the following the points onto the formula:


(x_(1), y_(1)) = (7, 3)


(x_(2), y_(2)) = (2, 9)


((7 + 2)/(2), (3 + 9)/(2))

-Solve the equation:


((7 + 2)/(2), (3 + 9)/(2))


((9)/(2), (12)/(2))


\boxed {(3, 6)}

So, the midpoint is
(3, 6).
