document.write( "Question 446813: Hi! My question is on the midpoint formula which is labeled under circles and parabolas in my algebra 2 book, so I'm assuming I'm in the right category. The worksheet gives the points P(3,-5) and Q(6,1), and then says to find the point X such that P is the midpoint of line QX. The way its worded tells me I can't go about this the normal way I do with midpoint formula problems. I don't understand what numbers to plug in where. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much! \n" ); document.write( "
