Question

The midpoint of AB is M(1,-2). If the coordinates of A are (-3, -8), what are the coordinates of B?​

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  B(5, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint formula is ...

  M = (A +B)/2

Solving for B gives ...

  B = 2M -A

  B = 2(1, -2) -(-3, -8) = (2+3, -4+8) = (5, 4)

The coordinates of B are (5, 4).
