To find the midpoint of AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯, we can use the midpoint formula:
Midpoint = ( (x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2 )
Using the given coordinates for points A and B, we have:
Midpoint = ( (-3 + (-7))/2 , (8 + (-6))/2 )
Midpoint = ( (-10)/2 , (2)/2 )
Midpoint = ( -5 , 1 )
Therefore, the midpoint of AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ is (-5, 1).
