The midpoint of a segment is (−2,−3) and one endpoint is (3,0) . find the coordinates of the other endpoint.
a. (8, 3)
b. (-7, 3)
c. (8, -6)
d. (-7, -6)

The midpoint can be defined using formula,

So by knowing and we can calculate

First we must derive two equations,

and

Then just put in the data,

So the other endpoint has coordinates therefore the answer is D.

Hope this helps.

To work out the mid point of two points you, add the x coordinates and divide by 2, and you take the y coordinates and divide by two:

So:

------------------------------------

So the x-coords of the midpoint is:

and

y -coords of midpoint is:

------------------------------------

However, in this question we are trying to work out one of the endpoints.

First let's say that the coordinates of the missing endpoint is:

(x , y)

_____________________________________________

That means that the x-coords of the midpoint of (x, y) and the other endpoint (3, 0) is :

However, we already know the x-coord of the midpoint ( it's -2). So we can form an equation to workout x:

               (multiply both sides by 2)

                     (subtract 3 from both sides)

This is the x-coord of the other endpoint

_______________________________________________

Let's do the same for the y coordinates:

We know y coords for the midpoint of (x, y) and (3, 0) is:

But we also know the ycoord is -3. So we can form an equation and solve for y:

  (multiply both sides by 2)

               (simplify)

This is the y-coord of the other endpoint

___________________________________

Now we just put these coords together to get the coordinate of the other endpoint:

Endpoint is at:

(x, y)                           (substitute in values that we worked out)

=  (-7, -6)

D. (-7, -6)

step-by-step explanation:

which of the following statements correctly describes the expression below based on its degree and number of terms?

314 - 7x2 + 11

i think this could be a possible answer (1 / 84) -1

good luck! : d
