Hey there! :)

Answer:

(-1, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the midpoint formula to derive the coordinates of the midpoint:

[tex](x_{m} ,y_{m} ) = (\frac{x_{1} +x_{2} }{2}, \frac{y_{1}+ y_{2} }{2} )[/tex]

Plug in the coordinates given:

[tex](\frac{-5+3 }{2}, \frac{2-8 }{2} )[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex](\frac{-2 }{2}, \frac{-6 }{2} )[/tex]

(-1, -3) are the coordinates of the midpoint.

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{Midpoint = (-1,-3)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates are (-5,2) and (3,-8)

M(x,y) = [tex](\frac{x1+x2}{2} , \frac{y1+y2}{2} )[/tex]

M(x,y) = [tex](\frac{-5+3}{2} , \frac{2-8}{2} )[/tex]

M(x,y) = [tex](\frac{-2}{2} , \frac{-6}{2} )[/tex]

M(x,y) = (-1,-3)
