Answer:

S(6, 10)

Explanation:

1. The Midpoint (in this case, M) will always be halfway between both R and S (or other characters in some cases).

2. As M is only one X value away from R, it is only 1 X value from S as well, but in the other direction.

3. (7, 10) - (1, 0) = (6, 10)

The (7, 10) is the Midpoint Coordinates.

The (1, 0) is the distance from M to R.

The (6, 10) is the coordinates of S.
