Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

A (-3, -5)

B (2, 7)

Step 2: Find midpoint

  1. Substitute:                    [tex](\frac{-3+2}{2},\frac{-5+7}{2})[/tex]
  2. Add:                              [tex](\frac{-1}{2},\frac{2}{2})[/tex]
  3. Divide:                          [tex](\frac{-1}{2},1)[/tex]
