Mid point is (- 8 / 2 , 23 / 2)
= (- 4 , 23 / 2)

It's a little simpler than the above answers suggest. The segment runs from 9 to 14, so it's 5 units long. The midpoint will be at 2.5 units along the segment, or at -4, 11.5.

Correct nath:

xmid=(x1+x2)/2
ymid=(y1+y2)/2

mid point (x,y)
x = (-4-4)/2 = - 4
y = (9+14)/2 = 23/2

midpoint = (x1+x2/2 , y1+y2/2)
=(-4-4/2 , 9+14/2)
=(-4,11.5)
