$(- 9, 1.7)$ , $(- 11, 1.3)$

Step 1

Use the midpoint formula to find the midpoint of the line segment.

$(\frac{x_{1} + x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1} + y_{2}}{2})$

Step 2

Substitute in the values for $(x_{1}, y_{1})$ and $(x_{2}, y_{2})$ .

$(\frac{- 9 - 11}{2}, \frac{1.7 + 1.3}{2})$

Step 3

Subtract $11$ from $- 9$ .

$(\frac{- 20}{2}, \frac{1.7 + 1.3}{2})$

Step 4

Divide $- 20$ by $2$ .

$(- 10, \frac{1.7 + 1.3}{2})$

Step 5

Add $1.7$ and $1.3$ .

$(- 10, \frac{3}{2})$

Step 6
