Ok, you can refer to the midpoint formula to find the endpoint. Here goes...
MP=(2,-7) and EP=(8,-5)
Let x represent the missing endpoint.
(8+x)/2=2 NOTE: =2 represents first number of MP and the representation of number 8 is self explanatory. You have two endpoints but need to identify the other endpoint so you divide by 2. Then, multiply by two on both sides.
2(8+x)/2 = 2*2
16+x/2=4 do the next step (simplify) on the left side of equation 16x/2=8
Now, subtract 4-8=-4 So, the x coordinated of the missing endpoint is -4.
3y = 5x + 30
y + 5x = 50 .......(1)
3y - 5x = 30 .....(2) - rearranging the first equation.
Add (1) and (2):-
4y = 80
y = 20
Now plug y = 20 into equation (1):-
20 + 5x = 50
5x = 30
x = 6
The 2 numbers are 6 and 20.
