Answer:
The midpoint is (5.5 , – 2.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the midpoint of the line segment, we use the midpoint formula
We have this as follows;
(x,y) = (x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2
(x1,y1) = (4,-4)
(x2,y2) = (7,-1)
We have;
(x,y) = (4+7)/2 , (-4-1)/2
(x,y) = 11/2 , -5/2
(x,y) = (5.5, -2.5)
