Question

The coordinates of point T are (7,-13). The midpoint of ST is (7,-8).Find the coordinates of point S.

Answer 1

(7, -3)

Explanation:

The midpoint formula is (a+b)/2

For the x coordinate: 7 = (7 + x) / 2 --> 14 = 7 + x --> x = 7

For the y-coordinate: -8 = (-13 + y)/2 --> -16 = -13 + y --> y = -3

hopefully this helps! <3
