Point A is at (3, 4) and point M is at (1, 0). Point M is the midpoint of segment AB. What
are the coordinates of Point B

Respuesta :

Answer:

B (-1 , -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

A (3 , 4)  

M (1 , 0)

[tex]B\left( x_{B},y_{B}\right)[/tex]

M is the midpoint of segment AB means :

[tex]\begin{cases}\frac{x_{A}+x_{B}}{2} =x_{M}&\\ \frac{y_{A}+y_{B}}{2} =y_{M}}{} &\end{cases}[/tex]

Then

[tex]\begin{cases}x_{B}=2x_{M}-x_{A}&\\ y_{B}=2y_{M}-y_{A}&\end{cases}[/tex]

Then

[tex]\begin{cases}x_{B}=2\left( 1\right) -3&\\ y_{B}=2(0)-4&\end{cases}[/tex]

Then

[tex]\begin{cases}x_{B}=-1&\\ y_{B}=-4&\end{cases}[/tex]
