Answer:

S = (3, 5 )

Explanation:

Given the endpoints (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) then the midpoint is

[
(1)/(2) (x₁ + x₂ ),
(1)/(2) (y₁ + y₂ ) ]

let the coordinates of S be (x, y ), then using the midpoint formula equate the parts to the coordinates of the midpoint M

x =
(1)/(2) (x + 5) = 4 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

x + 5 = 8 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

x = 3

y =
(1)/(2) (y + 3) = 4 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

y + 3 = 8 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

y = 5

The coordinates of S = (3, 5 )
