Question 23 • DCSS Algebra B-CR 24-25

The coordinates of midpoint M and endpoint Q of a segment are M(–7, 8) and Q(–19, 30). Find the coordinates of the other endpoint.

Answer
A
(–31, 52)
B
(–13, 19)
C
(5, –14)
D
(15, –4)

Explanation

The midpoint is the average of the two endpoints in each coordinate. If the unknown endpoint is P, then P = 2M − Q: (2(−7) − (−19), 2(8) − 30) = (5, −14). Therefore, the other endpoint is (5, −14), choice C.
