(1,-27/2)
Midpoint formula
(X1+x2/2, y1+y2/2)
Answer:
The midpoint is (1,-13.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, add the x coordinates of the endpoints and divide by 2
(7+-5) /2 = 2/2 =1
To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, add the y coordinates of the endpoints and divide by 2
(-12+-15) /2 = -27/2 =-13.5
The midpoint is (1,-13.5)
