Please help me tutors Find the coordinate of point B in the segment AB if M is the midpoint.
A (4,6) M (6,3)

Step 1. The midpoint (xm, ym) is the average of the x-coordinates and y-coordinates between points A given as (xa,ya) and B given as (xb, yb). Or in equation form

and

where xm=6, ym=3, xa=4, and ya=6.

Step 2. Solving for xb and yb will yield the following steps.

and

and

and

and

Step 3. Point B is at (8,0) or xb=8 and yb=0

I hope the above steps were helpful.
