Question

Point A is at (-2, -7) and point M is at (2.5, -1.5).
Point M is the midpoint of point A and point B.
What are the coordinates of point B?

Answer 1

Answer:

  B = (7, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

  B = 2M -A = 2(2.5, -1.5) -(-2, -7)

  B = (5+2, -3+7)

  B = (7, 4)

__

Derivation

You know the midpoint is calculated from ...

  M = (A+B)/2

Solving for B, we get ...

  2M = A+B

  B = 2M-A . . . . the formula we used above
