The midpoint of overline AB is M(7,-7) . If the coordinates of A are (8, - 6) , what are the coordinates of B?

Measure the distance between the two end points, and divide the result by 2. This distance from either end is the midpoint of that line. Alternatively, add the two x coordinates of the endpoints and divide by 2. Do the same for the y coordinates.
