Answer:

           P(-5, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

If M is midpoint of AP then:  

[tex]x_P-x_M=x_M-x_A\qquad\quad\ \wedge\qquad y_P-y_M=y_M-y_A\\\\x_P-(-3)=-3-(-1)\qquad\wedge\qquad y_P-2=2-5\\\\x_P+3=-3+1\qquad\quad\ \wedge\qquad\quad y_P-2=-3\\\\x_P=-3+1-3\qquad\quad\ \wedge\qquad\quad y_P=-3+2\\\\x_P=-5\qquad\qquad\ \wedge\qquad\qquad y_P=-1[/tex]
