B
open paren negative 4 comma 1 half close paren
C
open paren negative 17 halves comma 5 close paren
D
open paren negative 16 comma 5 halves close paren

Explanation

Use the midpoint formula: average the x-coordinates and average the y-coordinates. The x-coordinate is (−20 + 12) ÷ 2 = −4, and the y-coordinate is (3 + (−2)) ÷ 2 = 1/2. So the midpoint is (−4, 1/2), choice B.
