Point A is located at (2, 6), and point M is located at (−1, 8). If point M is the midpoint of segment AB, find the location of point B. (5, 4) (0.5, 7) (0, 6) (−4, 10)

snowflake0531:

You want to find the distance between the x's and the y's (2,6) (-1,8)

snowflake0531:

For x, what is 2+(-1) divided by 2 For y, what is 6+8 divided by 2

So i am getting 0.5 and 7

snowflake0531:

Yes so there's your answer (0.5,7)

kekeman:

Yayyy thanks for the help

snowflake0531:

yw~

kekeman:

Now i am confused bec people are telling me it is " (−4, 10)"

snowflake0531:

who's the 'people'

kekeman:

@surjithayer

kekeman:

He said: Let B be (x,y) if (X,Y) be mid point,then X=x1+x22 Y=y1+y22 −1=2+x2 x+2=-2 x=-2-2=-4 x=-4 8=6+y2 y+6=16 y=16-6=10 so B is (-4,10)

snowflake0531:

i'm wrong i read it incorretly

snowflake0531:

he's right xd

kekeman:
