Find the midpoint M of the line segment joining the points C=(-4,-4) and D =(2,8),

We have the next points
C=(-4,-4)=(x1,y1)
D=(2,8)=(x2,y2)
In order to find the midpoint
-For the x-coordinate of the midpoint
[tex]x_m=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}[/tex][tex]x_m=\frac{-4+2}{2}=\frac{-2}{2}=-1[/tex]-For the y-coordinate of the midpoint
[tex]y_m=\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}=\frac{-4+8}{2}=\frac{4}{2}=2[/tex]The midpoint is (-1,2)
