You can put this solution on YOUR website! (4,-3) and (2,-7) are endpoints of a segment. Find the midpoint of the segment and graph the segment placing the three points on the graph.
----------
The x and the y coordinate of the midpoint are the average of the x and y
coordinates of the end points.
x-coordinate is (4+2)/2 = 3
y-coordinate is (-3 + -7)/2 =-5
So the mid-point is (3,-5)
