Given points A and B, we know that the general rule to find the midpoint is:


M(A,B)=((x_1+x_2)/(2),(y_1+y_2)/(2))

In this case, since A=(-3,-9) and B=(-4,6), we get:


\begin{gathered} M(A,B)=((-3-4)/(2),(-9+6)/(2)) \\ \Rightarrow M(A,B)=(-(7)/(2),-(3)/(2)) \end{gathered}

Therefore, the midpoint is (-7/2,-3/2)
