-$(\sqrt{6},-5)$ and $(\sqrt{5}, 1)$
A) $\left(\frac{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{5}}{2},-2\right)$
B) $\left(-2, \frac{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{5}}{2}\right)$
C) $\left(\frac{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{5}}{2},-3\right)$
D) $\left(-3, \frac{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{5}}{2}\right)$

The midpoint formula is $\left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)$. Applying this to the given points, we get $\left(\frac{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{5}}{2}, \frac{-5+1}{2}\right) = \left(\frac{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{5}}{2},-2\right)$.
