Answer:

(-7/2, -1/2) or in decimal (-3.5, -0.5)

Explanation:

The midpoint of any two points in a 2D plane will have its x-coordinate as the average of the x-coordinates of the two points and its y-coordinate as the average of the y-coordinates of the two points

Let Xm and Ym be the x and y coordinates of the midpoint

We have the two points as (-5, 2) and (-2, -3)

Xm = (-5 + -2)/2 = -7/2

Ym = (2 + (-3)) = (2-3)/2 = -1/2

So the midpoint is at (-7/2, -1/2) or in decimal (-3.5, -0.5)
