HELP ME, its due at 9pm Find the coordinates of the other endpoint of the segment, given its midpoint and one endpoint. (Hint: Let(x, y) be the unknown endpoint. Apply the midpoint formula,
and solve the two equations for x and y)
midpoint (-24.18) endpoint (-19.10)
The other endpoint is
(Type an ordered pair

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

(9, 0) = (  (x1 + 12) / 2  ,   (y1 + 3) / 2)

Break up this formula into two equations.

(x1 + 12) / 2 = 9           and          (y1 + 3) / 2 = 0

Solve for x1 and y1 from the equations.

another way to explain it

the formula for finding the midpoint of a segment given the coordinates of its endpoints is:

((x1+ x2)/2, (y1 +  y2)/2   {Average of the x coordinates, average of the y coordinates}.

For this problem we know the coordinates of the midpoint along with one of the endpoints.

So the x coordinate of the midpoint (9) must equal (12 + x2)/2.

That is:  9 = (12 + x2)/2  Solve for x2. Follow a similar pattern to find the y coordinate of the unknown endpoint.

and another way

The x's are 3 apart and the y's are 3 apart. The other endpoint is (9 - 3, 0 - 3), or (6,-3).

hope this helped you have a good day this was ez
