Question

M(7,5) is midpoint of segment rs. the coordinates s are (8,7). what are the coordinates of r.

Answer 1

Therefore your answer for the coordinate of R is (6,3).

Explanation:

The difference between the x and y values for each ordered pair is 1 for x and 2 for y. Next you would subtract a 1 from the x-coordinate in (7,5) and subtract a 2 from the y-coordinate in (7,5). by doing so you get the ordered pair (6,3). Therefore your answer for the coordinate of R is (6,3).
