Answer:
The midpoint is (-1.5, -.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, average the x coordinates of the endpoints
( 3+ -6)/2 = -3/2 = -1.5
To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, average the y coordinates of the endpoints
( 5+ -6)/2 = -1/2 = -.5
The midpoint is (-1.5, -.5)
