Answer:

the coordinates of P are (-14,3)

Explanation:

as we know PQ is a line segment and it has a mid-point M in order to find the coordinates of P we use mid-point formula


M(x,y)=((x1+x2)/(2),(y1+y2)/(2) )


(-9,8.5)=((x1+(-4))/(2),(y1+14)/(2) )

comparing the coordinates separately


-9=(x1-4)/(2) or
8.5=(y1+14)/(2)

simplifying the both equations

-9×2=x1-4 or 8.5×2=y1+14

-18=x1-4 or 17=y1+14

-18+4=x1 or 17-14=y1

-14=x1 or 3=y1

so the coordinates of P are (-14,3)

in order to check the values put it in mid-point formula to find the coordinates of M

i hope this will help you :)
