In the complex plane, the line segment with end-points -11 + 3i and 8 + 5i is plotted in the complex plane. Find the complex number corresponding to the mid-point of this line segment.

-11+3i on the complex plane corresponds to (-11, 3) on the Cartesian plane, and 8+5i corresponds to (8, 5) through the same reasoning.  Because of this, the midpoint between the line segment connecting -11+5i and 8+5i is the midpoint of (-11, 3) and (8, 5) on the Cartesian plane, only turned into a complex number.  Thus, the midpoint is -1.5+4i
