Question

Find the other endpoint of the line segment with the given endpoint and midpoint. Endpoint: (−8,8) Midpoint: (−7,0)

Answer 1

Answer:

The other endpoint is (-6,-8).

Step-by-step explanation:

If you follow the slope that the two points made  (Endpoint: (−8,8) Midpoint: (−7,0), the slope is -$\frac{-8}{1}$ ) you follow it down like this:

Answer 2

Answer:

(-6, -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint Formula: $(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} ,\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )$

Simply set our variables to what we know and solve:

-7 = (-8 + x)/2

-14 = -8 + x

x = -6

0 = (8 + y)/2

0 = 8 + y

y = -8
