M is the midpoint of. Find the coordinates of B given A(4,-2) and M(4,7).
M is the midpoint with the line of AB with the line on top
Do you know the formula to find the coordinate of midpoint?
Note that the x value doesn't change, so all motion is along the y direction. The distance to the midpoint is nine, so nine more upward gives coordinate (4,16) as B.
????
will it be -1,2
So you neither know the midpoint formula nor understand AnimalAin's explanation?
From what AnimalAin explains: A(4,-2) and M(4,7) Notice both x coordinates the same => B ( 4, ...) Then since Δy = 7 + 2 = 9 => y = 7 + 9 = 16
thus B ( 4, 16)
there isnt a 4,16 in the multipuly choice
Let me test by my way, but I'm pretty sure my friend's way correct!
wil it be -1,2
Both ways yield exactly same result B ( 4, 16)
You must have mixed up the result from some other question :(
yeah you right am sorry bro
Of course, I know it happens :P And I also know myself and my friend :)
