You can put this solution on YOUR website! Use the Midpoint Formula,
(X1 + x2 /2), (Y1 + y2 /2)
(-8,7) (-2,8)
X1 = -8
x2 = -2
Y1 = 7
y2 = 8
(-8 + -2 /2), (7 + 8 /2)
Midpiont = (-5,7.5)
Answer by mananth(16949)  (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If the coordinates of A and B are ( x1, y1) and ( x2, y2) respectively, then the midpoint, M, of AB is given by the following formula
M =  
x= ( -8 -2 )/ 2 y= ( 7 -2 )/ 2
x= -5 ,y= 2.5
