Point
\[\blue{A}\] is at
\[\blue{(-2, -7)}\] and point
\[\green{B}\] is at
\[\green{(7, 4)}\].

\[\overline{AB}\]?
1 answer
To find the midpoint of a line segment, we average the $x$-coordinates and the $y$-coordinates of the endpoints. The midpoint of $\overline{AB}$ is therefore $\left(\frac{-2+7}{2}, \frac{-7+4}{2}\right) = \boxed{(2.5, -1.5)}$.
