00:01 To begin, we're going to use the midpoint formula that's defined above.
00:03 So we're going to find the average of the x's.
00:05 So this is x1 and this is x2.
00:08 So negative 3 plus 6 divided by 2.
00:11 And then the same thing for y1 and y2.
00:13 So we're doing negative 3 plus negative 1 divided by 2.
00:17 So just to define this down, negative 3 plus 6 is 3 divided by 2 is a positive 1 .5.
00:23 And then negative 3 plus negative 1 is negative 1 is negative 2...
