Exercise 16 Page 54

We can use the Midpoint Formula to find the missing endpoint by splitting the usual formula into two separate equations — one for the x-coordinate and one for the y-coordinate. M(x_1+x_2/2, y_1+y_2/2) ⇕ x_M=x_1+x_2/2 and y_M=y_1+y_2/2 To find x_1, we can use the x-coordinate of the midpoint, x_M= 5, and the given endpoint, x_2= 0. The x-coordinate of the endpoint S is 10. Now, we will determine its y-coordinate in a similar process. The y-coordinates of the midpoint and given endpoint are -8 and 4, respectively. The y-coordinate of S is -20, so point S is located at (10, -20).
