OpenStudy (john_es):

The distance between two points P(a,b) and Q(c,d) is given by \[d(P,Q)=\sqrt{(c-a)^2+(d-b)^2}=\sqrt{104}\approx10.2\] The midpoint of the segment determined by the points E(a,b) and C(c,d) is given by \[P_m=\frac{E+C}{2}=(2,1)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank You!!!! :D

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

have you got the other end point @blackleopard?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think its (-7,-2)... ?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

compare the points C and E , how much has the x coordinate changed? how much has the y coordinate changed?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

yeah look likes you got -6 for the change in x and -2 for the change in y so applying this change again to E to get D you got -1-6=-7 for x and 0-2 =-2 for y that's right

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

you might have used a different method

OpenStudy (john_es):

Oh, I misread the question 11, sorry.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so wats the answeR?

OpenStudy (john_es):

With my method the correct answer should be, \[(-1,0)=\frac{(x,y)+(5,2)}{2}\Rightarrow(-2,0)=(x,y)+(5,2)\Rightarrow(x,y)=(-7,-2)\]where (x,y) are the coordinates of the endpoint they ask for. So the answer for c is (-7,-2) as @UnkleRhaukus wrote.

OpenStudy (john_es):

I hope it helps ;).

OpenStudy (john_es):

Ok ;), I delete now.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
