Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation

Midpoint of PQ \(\frac{x_2 + x_1}{2};\frac{y_2 + y_1}{2}\)
=\(\frac{-1+(-3)}{2};\frac{6-4}{2}\)
=\(\frac{-4}{2};\frac{2}{2}\)
= -2, 1
Midpoint of QR = \(\frac{x_2 + x_1}{2};\frac{y_2 + y_1}{2}\)
\(\frac{-3+1}{2};\frac{-4-4}{2}\)
\(\frac{-2}{2};\frac{-8}{2}\)
-1, -4
Midpoint of PQ and QR = (-2,1) and (-1,-4)

There is an explanation video available below.
