(0.5,7.5)

Explanation:

Amount of points between -3 and 4 is 7 (we are looking at the x-axis right now).
Half way through that is 0.5 because 7 divided by 2 is 3.5. So -3 + 3.5 equals to 0.5.
Amount of points between 5 and 10 is 5 ( we are looking at y-axis now).
Half way is 7.5 because 5 divided by 2 is 2.5. So 5 + 2.5 is 7.5.
Put it all together....
(0.5,7.5)
