<h3>
Answer: (3, -1)</h3>
===============================================
Explanation:
The midpoint formula is 
This basically says to add the corresponding coordinates and divide by 2.
The given points (2,5) and (4,-7) have x coordinates of 2 and 4. They add to 2+4 = 6, and then that result cuts in half to 6/2 = 3. The x coordinate of the midpoint is 3.
The y coordinate of the midpoint is y = -1 since adding the y coordinates of the given points leads to 5+(-7) = -2 which cuts in half to -1.
So overall the midpoint is located at (3, -1)
11/26 chance that the student plays both instruments.
First, add the amount of students that just play flute or piano:
3 + 5 = 8
Then add 8 to the amount that does not play either instrument:
8 + 7 = 15
Then do:
26 - 15 = 11
Then place 11 over the amount of people:
11/26

Answer:
well assuming there's 6 friends, which you did not state, if you divided it into 6ths then everyone will get one piece
