The question is trying to trick you ignore the first half of the question and only look at what is the midpoint (-11,-8)(1,_)

midpoint equation: x1+x2 y1+y2
2 , 2
substitute the numbers into the question
-11+1 -8 +y2 = -5 , -8+y2
2 , 2 2

take -8+y2 and set it equal to 1
2

-8+y2 = 1 times both sides by 2
2

-8+y2 = 2
+8 +8
y2=10 sub this into the og equation

-8+10 = 1
2

your final answer is (-5,1)
