Question

How do you find the endpoint of R(6,-2), M(5,3)?

Answer 1

from 6 to 5 is left one unit, left one more goes to 4
from -2 is 3 is up 5 units, up five more gives 8
answer is (4,8)

Answer 2

x1+x2 y1+y2
_______ , _______ = Midpoint formula.
2 2

To find the EndPoint

6+x2 -2+y2
_______ = 5 ________ = 3
2 2

5*2 = 10 3*2 = 6
6+x=10 -2+y = 6
x = 10-6 y = 6 + 2
x = 4 y = 8

Therefore Endpoint = (4,8)
