Find the midpoint of the line segment between $(-5,5)$ and $(3,7)$. Express your answer as an ordered pair, $(x,y)$.
I know that the midpoint of a line segment is the average of the endpoints, so I can find the midpoint by averaging the $x$-coordinates and the $y$-coordinates separately. For the $x$-coordinate, I add the two values and divide by two: $(-5+3)/2 = -2/2 = -1$. For the $y$-coordinate, I do the same: $(5+7)/2 = 12/2 = 6$. So the midpoint is $(-1,6)$.
