Answer:

[tex]x=-33[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula of midpoint between two points is equal to

[tex]M=\frac{1}{2}(x1+x2)[/tex]

In this problem we have

[tex]M=-3[/tex]

[tex]x1=x[/tex]

[tex]x2=27[/tex]

substitute the values and solve for x

[tex]-3=\frac{1}{2}(x+27)[/tex]

[tex]-6=(x+27)[/tex]

[tex]x=-6-27=-33[/tex]
