Answer:

  • length: 6.5
  • midpoint: (0.75, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The length is given by the distance formula:

  d = √((x2 -x1)² +(y2 -y1)²)

  d = √((2 -(-1/2))² + (-5-1)²) = √((5/2)² +(-6)²) = √42.25 = 6.5 . . . . exactly

__

The midpoint is the average of the endpoints:

  M = (A+B)/2 = ((-1/2+2)/2, (1-5)/2) = (3/4, -2)
