Answer:

(2.5, 5.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the midpoint of two coordinates is expressed as;

M(X, Y) = {(x1+x2/2, y1+y2/2)}

X = x1+x2/2

Y = y1+y2/2

Given the coordinates (7, 8) and (-2, 3)

X = 7-2/2

X = 5/2

X = 2.5

Y = y1 + y2/2

Y = 8+3/2

Y = 11/2

Y = 5.5

Hence the midpoint M of the coordinates is (2.5, 5.5)
