Answer:

(-5, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint formula: [tex](\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2} , \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2})[/tex]

Now, if we work backwards, starting with the x-coordinate

-2 * 2 = -4 - 1 = -5

Then, the y-coordinate

5 * 2 = 10 - 7 = 3

We reach our answer of (-5, 3). A good habit would be to plug these points back into the formula to check if your answer is correct.
