$(- 3.5, - 5.5)$ $(-3.5, -5.5)$

Midpoint = $(\frac{x_{1} + x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1} + y_{2}}{2})$ $(( x_1 + x_2 )/ 2 , ( y_1 + y_2 )/ 2)$

$color(white)(.) ubrace( ((-3, 1))) color(white)("dddd") ubrace(( (-4, -12)))$

$color(white)(..)(x_1, y_1) color(white)("dddd.dd") (x_2, y_2$ )

$((-3 + -4)/2 , (1 + -12)/2)$

$(color(white)(2/2) -3.5 color(white)("d.d"),color(white)("d") -5.5 color(white)("d"))$

What is the midpoint between points (-3,1)(−3,1)(-3,1) and (-4, -12)(−4,−12)(-4, -12)?
