So if 7 is the middle x-value, you calculate how far it is from the given endpoint in order to determine how far it is from the other endpoint. So,
7 -5 =2, so the other endpoint must be 2 away from 7 in the opposite direction, 7+2=9
Then repeat with y,
3-1/2=5/2, therefore 1/2 - 5/2 = -4/2= -2
So the point is (9, -2)
The picture below explains how to get your answer
hope it helps :)
• Expand (2a + b)²:
(2a + b)²
= (2a + b) · (2a + b)
Multiply out the brackets by applying the distributive property of multiplication:
= (2a + b) · 2a + (2a + b) · b
= 2a · 2a + b · 2a + 2a · b + b · b
= 2²a² + 2ab + 2ab + b²
Now, group like terms together, and you get
= 2²a² + 4ab + b²
= 4a² + 4ab + b² <——— expanded form (this is the answer).
I hope this helps. =)
