Explanation:
#"given the endpoints of a segment, say"#
#(x_1,y_1)" and "(x_2,y_2)#
#"then the coordinates of the midpoint are the average of"#
#"the coordinates of the endpoints"#
#[1/2(x_1+x_2),1/2(y_1+y_2)]#
#"here "(x_1,y_1)=(-1,3)" and "(x_2,y_2)=(-3,5)#
#"midpoint "=[1/2(-1-3),1/2(3+5)]#
#color(white)(xxxxxxx)=(-2,4)#
