Question

Find the endpoint P of a line segment whose midpoint Q lies at (5, -10) and whose other endpoint lies at (-8, -4). Write it as an ordered pair.

Answer 1

P is (18, -16)

to find the answer, u would solve it in reverse order of the midpoint formula by first doing the x-values:

5(2)= 10-(-8) = 18

and then the same to y-values:

-10(2)= (-20)-(-4) = -16

to get:

(18, -16)
