Question

G(8.3,-1.4) is the midpoint between B(x,y) and L(-5.9,8). Find the coordinates of B

Answer 1

The coordinates of B is (22.5, -3.6)

How to find the coordinates of B?

The points are given as:

G = (8.3,-1.4)

B = (x,y)

L = (-5.9,8).

The midpoint is calculated as:

G = 0.5 * (x1 + x2, y1 + y2)

So, we have:

(8.3,-1.4)  = 0.5 * (x - 5.9, y + 0.8)

This gives

(16.6,-2.8)  = (x - 5.9, y + 0.8)

Solve for x and y

x - 5.9 = 16.6

y + 0.8 = -2.8

Evaluate

x = 22.5

y = -3.6

Hence, the coordinates of B is (22.5, -3.6)
