Answer:

Explanation:

The midpoint between two points is the average of the coordinates.

mp=((x2+x1)/2, (y2+y1)/2)

In this case we are given one end point and the midpoint.

Just look at the x coordinate first.

If the mid x is 8 and the x from j is 10 we have

(10+x)/2=8

10+x=16

x=6, now for the y for j when y=6 and mid y of 5

(6+y)/2=5

6+y=10

y=4

So the coordinates of K are (6,4)
