Answer:

I don't know what your numbers are, but if it is on a number line, just add the absolute values (always positive) of the endpoints together, and divide by 2 (find the average).

On a graph, find the average of the x coordinates, (that is midpoint x value) and the average of the y coordinates (that is midpoint y value)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have a negative number, the absolute value is the same number, just positive. E.X. -4 the absolute value is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line is passing through the points:

$(-2,\:3)=(x_1,\:y_1) \:\&\: (2,\:5)=(x_2 ,\:y_2)$

Equation of line in two point form is given as:

$\frac{y -y_1 }{y_1 -y_2 } = \frac{x -x_1 }{x_1 -x_2 } \\ \\ \therefore \frac{y -3}{ 3 -5} = \frac{x -(-2) }{-2 -2} \\ \\ \therefore \frac{y -3}{ - 2} = \frac{x -(-2) }{-4} \\ \\ \therefore \frac{y - 3}{1} = \frac{x +2}{2} \\ \\ \therefore \: y-3= \frac{x}{2} + \frac{2}{2} \\ \\\therefore \: y= \frac{x}{2} + 1 +3\\ \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{\therefore \: y= \frac{1}{2} \:x+ 4}}\\ is \: the \: required \: equation \: of \: line.$
