To find the midpoint, first we need to find the individual coordinates of the midpoint.

X-Coordinate of the Midpoint:

To find the x-coordinate of the midpoint, simply average the two x-coordinates of the given points by adding them up and dividing that result by 2 like this:

So the x-coordinate of the midpoint is

-----------------------------------------------------

Y-Coordinate of the Midpoint:

To find the y-coordinate of the midpoint, simply average the two y-coordinates of the given points by adding them up and dividing that result by 2 like this:

So the y-coordinate of the midpoint is

So the midpoint between the points
