Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint the formulas

x=x1+x2/2 and y=y1+y2/2 are used

in this case x1 is 5,x2 is 5,y1 is 4 and y2 is -3

therefore

x=5+5/2.

=10/2

=5

y=4+(-3)/2

=1/2

The midpoint of a line segment divides the line into equal segments

The midpoint of the line segment is (5,1/2)

The endpoints of the line is given as:

(5,4) and (5,-3)

The midpoint of the line is calculated as:

(x,y) = 0.5(x1 + x2, y1 + y2)

So, we have:

(x,y) = 0.5(5 + 5, 4 - 3)

Evaluate the sum and difference

(x,y) = 0.5(10, 1)

Evaluate the product

(x,y) = (5, 1/2)

Hence, the midpoint of the line segment is (5,1/2)
