I believe this is scale factor? SF=new/old. 10/8= a scale factor of 1.25 (the image gets 1.25x bigger). To find x, multiply 5 by 1.25 and subtract the original length of 5 (you subtract this length because x is only the value of the new part of the triangle). X=6.25-5, X=1.25. Try to find y yourself using this scale factor. (Brainliest would be appreciated)

earnstyle [38]

The formula of a midpoint:

$M_{AB}\left(\dfrac{x_A+x_B}{2},\ \dfrac{y_A+y_B}{2}\right)$

We have:

$M(1.5,\ 1.5)\to x_M=1.5,\ y_M=1.5\\A(5,\ 7)\to x_A=5,\ y_A=7$

Substitute

$\dfrac{5+x_B}{2}=1.5\qquad|\cdot2\\\\5+x_B=3\qquad|-5\\\\x_B=-2\\\\\dfrac{7+y_B}{2}=1.5\qquad|\cdot2\\\\7+y_B=3\qquad|-7\\\\y_B=-4$

<h3>Answer: (-2, -4)</h3>
