P( 3, -1 )
M( 5, 4 )
---------------
Find x-value of the other endpoint L( x, y )
-----------------
--------------------
L( x, y ), the other endpoint, is L( 7, 9 )
-----------------------------------------------
check answer:
Find the equation that goes through P and L
Does the line go through M( 5,4 ) ?
OK
