$M(4, 7)$ is the midpoint of segment $AB$ , and $A = (1, 5)$ . What is the $x$ -coordinate of $B$ ?

Since $\dfrac{1 + B_x}{2} = 4$ , we get $B_x = 8 - 1 = 7$ .

Find the midpoint of $(2, 8)$ and $(6, 4)$ . What is the $x$ -coordinate?

$x$ -coordinate $= \dfrac{2 + 6}{2} = \dfrac{8}{2} = 4$ .

Practice playeasy

Find the midpoint of $(2, 8)$ and $(6, 4)$ . What is the $y$ -coordinate?

$y$ -coordinate $= \dfrac{8 + 4}{2} = \dfrac{12}{2} = 6$ .

Practice playeasy

The midpoint of $\overline{PQ}$ is $(6, 2)$ , and $P = (9, 8)$ . What is the $y$ -coordinate of $Q$ ?

Since $\dfrac{8 + Q_y}{2} = 2$ , we get $Q_y = 4 - 8 = -4$ .
