Here,

x1 = -2         x2 = 3

y1 = 4          y2 = 1

z1 = -4         z2 = 0

 

Formula for mid point :

 x = (x1 + x2)/2

 x = (-2 + 3)/2

x = ½

 

y =  (y1 + y2)/2

y =  (4 + 1)/2

y = 5/2

 

z =  (z1 + z2)/2

z =  (-4 +0)/2

z = -2 

 

Therefore, the mid point of line segment PQ is (½, 5/2, -2).
