Mid point $->(x,y)=(1,-2)$

The mid point is the mean values

$x_("mid")-> (-3+5)/2=1$

$y_("mid")->(-2-2)/2=-2$

Mid point $->(x,y)=(1,-2)$

The mid point is $=(1,-2)$

If you have 2 points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$

The mid point is

$=((x_1+x_2)/2,(y_1+y_2)/2)$

Here, we have

$A=(-3,-2)$ and $B=(5,-2)$

The mid point of $AB$ is

$=((-3+5)/2,(-2-2)/2)$

$=(1,-2)$
