There are actually quite a few real life examples of a midpoint. The Equator is an example of a midpoint.
real life situations where in rational algebraic equation is applied/used

They basically tell you to take the reciprocal of the number with the positive exponent. So, if you see a negative exponent, just flip the base to get rid of it like a bad habit. It's all about playing mathematical mind games to make the numbers work in your favor.
