You are given two points in the coordinate plane,  A = (-5,0)  and  B = (0,4).


The midpoint C has x-coordinate as the average of x-coordinates -5 and 0 of the points A and B    =  = -2.5


and has y-coordinate as the average of y-coordinates 0 and 4 of the points A and B    =  = 2.


Thus midpoint C is C = (-2.5,2).
