Answer

$(1, 5\sqrt{5})$

Work Step by Step

RECALL: The midpoint of $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ can be found using the midpoint formula $\text{midpoint}=\left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)$ Use the formula above to obtain: $\text{midpoint} \\=\left(\dfrac{8+(-6)}{2}, \dfrac{3\sqrt{5}+7\sqrt{5}}{2}\right) \\=\left(\dfrac{2}{2}, \dfrac{10\sqrt{5}}{2}\right) \\=(1, 5\sqrt{5})$
