Answer:

(-13/2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

There's a fancy formula for the midpoint, but here's a way that might be easier to remember.  The average of two numbers is exactly halfway between them.

Average the x's:  (-9 + (-4))/2 = -13/2

Average the y's:  (8 + (-2))/2 = 6/2 = 3

The midpoint is (-13/2, 3).

The formula tells you to do the same thing:  add the x's and divide by 2, then add the y's and divide by 2.

Midpoint = (average x, average y)
