The midpoint of segment XY is Z(6, -3). The coordinates of one endpoint are X(-1, 8). Find the coordinates of endpoint Y. MEDALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Plug in the numbers into mid point formula.
UMM but would thant give me the mid point of yz i need to find y
|dw:1389895084762:dw|
\[\huge\color{red}{ (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} ~~~,~~~\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})}\]
i know th formula but how do i get y
\[\huge\color{red}{ (\frac{-1+x_2}{2} ~~~,~~~\frac{8+y_2}{2})=(6,-3)}\]
\[\huge\color{red}{ \frac{-1+x_2}{2}=6 ~~~~~~\frac{8+y_2}{2}=-3}\]
ohhhh 14, -14
right
Oh, I was in the abthrrr \[\color{red}{ \frac{-1+x_2}{2}=6 ~~~~~~\frac{8+y_2}{2}=-3}\]\[\color{red}{ -1+x_2=12 ~~~~~~8+y_2=-6 }\]\[\color{red}{ x_2=13 ~~~~~~y_2=-14 }\]
i was close, thank you
Yeah you were, good job, yw!
