Well, you need to know the midpoint formula in order to solve this. If you don't know it, I'll give it to you.
%28Xsub1%2BXsub2%29%2F2,%28Ysub1%2BYsub2%29%2F2
Basically, you are taking the average of the 2 X values and the 2 Y values.
Just plug those numbers into the formula.
%285-2%29%2F2,%281%2B7%29%2F2
You should end up with the ordered pair
(3%2F2,4)
Hope this helps!
