UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

To find the midpoint $$ M $$ of the line segment $$ AB $$, use the midpoint formula:

$$
M = \left( \frac{x_A + x_B}{2}, \frac{y_A + y_B}{2} \right)
$$

Given:
- Point $$ A = (5, 7) $$
- Point $$ B = (-1, -5) $$

Plugging in the values:

$$
M = \left( \frac{5 + (-1)}{2}, \frac{7 + (-5)}{2} \right) = \left( \frac{4}{2}, \frac{2}{2} \right) = (2, 1)
$$

**Answer:** The midpoint of $$ AB $$ is $$ (2,\ 1) $$.
The midpoint of $$ AB $$ is $$ (2,\ 1) $$.
