To find the midpoint of the line segment between two points, we need to average the x-coordinates and the y-coordinates of the two points separately.
So, to find the midpoint of S(-5, 4) and T(-3, -2), we take the average of their x-coordinates and the average of their y-coordinates:
Midpoint x-coordinate = (S x-coordinate + T x-coordinate) / 2
= (-5 + (-3)) / 2
= -4
Midpoint y-coordinate = (S y-coordinate + T y-coordinate) / 2
= (4 + (-2)) / 2
= 1
Therefore, the midpoint of S(-5, 4) and T(-3, -2) is (-4, 1).
