General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

• Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Algebra I

• Midpoint Formula:
  `((x_1+x_2)/(2),(y_1+y_2)/(2))`

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Endpoint (-1, 4)

Endpoint (5, 7)

Step 2: Find midpoint

1. Substitute:
   `((-1+5)/(2),(4+7)/(2))`
2. Add:
   `((4)/(2),(11)/(2))`
3. Divide:
   `(2,(11)/(2))`
