Answer:

(-4, -4).

Explanation:

In order to calculate the midpoint coordinates, we need to calculate the mean value of the x-coordinates and the mean value of the y-coordinates.

So we have:

M(x)=(-1+(-7))/(2)=(-8)/(2)=-4

M(y)=(-6+(-2))/(2)=(-8)/(2)=-4

Therefore the midpoint coordinates are (-4, -4).
