You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If (p + q, 2r) is the mid-point and (p – q, r – p) an endpoint of a
line segment then find the coordinates of the other endpoint.
I will set it up and you solve.
(p+q)/2 = p-q
And
(r-p)/2 = 2r
Solve each equation individually to find the coordinates of the missing point.
