(6, 8)

$(6, 8)$ ,

(- 9, - 3)

$(- 9, - 3)$

Step 1

Use the midpoint formula to find the midpoint of the line segment.

(\frac{x_{1} + x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1} + y_{2}}{2})

$(\frac{x_{1} + x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1} + y_{2}}{2})$

Step 2

Substitute in the values for

(x_{1}, y_{1})

$(x_{1}, y_{1})$ and

(x_{2}, y_{2})

$(x_{2}, y_{2})$ .

(\frac{6 - 9}{2}, \frac{8 - 3}{2})

$(\frac{6 - 9}{2}, \frac{8 - 3}{2})$

Step 3

Subtract

9

$9$ from

6

$6$ .

(\frac{- 3}{2}, \frac{8 - 3}{2})

$(\frac{- 3}{2}, \frac{8 - 3}{2})$

Step 4

Move the negative in front of the fraction.

(- \frac{3}{2}, \frac{8 - 3}{2})

$(- \frac{3}{2}, \frac{8 - 3}{2})$

Step 5

Subtract

3

$3$ from

8

$8$ .

(- \frac{3}{2}, \frac{5}{2})

$(- \frac{3}{2}, \frac{5}{2})$
