Answer:

  • (-18, 17)

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given </h3>
  • Line segment GH with midpoint X(-8, 4) and G(2, -9)
<h3>To find</h3>
  • Coordinates of H(x, y)
<h3>Solution</h3>

<u>Using midpoint formula</u>

  • (2 + x)/2 = -8 ⇒ x + 2 = -16 ⇒ x = -18
  • (-9 + y)/2 = 4 ⇒ y - 9 = 8 ⇒ y = 17

<u>So the coordinates of H are </u>

  • (-18, 17)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

The given midpoint is; X(-8,4) and G(2,-9).

To find: H

Now; You need to use formula for midpoint.

midpoint(x) = ( \frac{x1 + x2}{2} , \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )

<u>Pu</u><u>t</u><u> all</u><u> values</u><u>.</u>

<u>( - 8,4) =  (\frac{ 2 + x}{2} , \frac{ -  9 + y}{2} )</u>

<u>As</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u>y</u><u> are</u><u> </u><u>eq</u><u>ual</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>their</u><u> </u><u>corres</u><u>ponding</u><u> </u><u>eleme</u><u>nts</u><u> </u><u>are</u><u> </u><u>eq</u><u>ual</u><u>.</u>

<u>- 8 =  \frac{2 + x}{2}</u>

<u>- 16 - 2 = x</u>

<u>x</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>1</u><u>8</u>

<u>4 =  \frac{ - 9 + y}{2}</u>

<u>4  \times 2 =  - 9 + y</u>

<u>8 + 9 = y</u>

<u>y = 17</u>

<u>There</u><u>fore</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>y</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>7</u><u>.</u>

<u>There</u><u>fore</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>H</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u>(</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>1</u><u>8</u><u>,</u><u>1</u><u>7</u><u>)</u><u>.</u>

<em><u>Hope</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>it</u></em><em><u> helps</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>
