Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The midpoint of the two values is half the absolute value of their difference added to the lowest value.

Find the Midpoint

  • [tex]O = \frac12|M - N| + M[/tex]
  • [tex]O = \frac12|-5 - 3| - 5[/tex]
  • [tex]O =\frac12 |-8| - 5[/tex]       [tex]\hookrightarrow[/tex] The absolute value turns any number into the positive form
  • [tex]O = \frac12(8) - 5[/tex]
  • [tex]O = 4 - 5[/tex]
  • [tex]O = -1[/tex]

The midpoint is -1.
