The midpoint of UV is (5,-11). The coordinates of one endpoint are U(3,5). Find the coordinates of endpoint V.

(please show work and explain.)

If we call the midpoint M, then the coordinates of M are halfway from U to V.

M = (5,-11) = (3,5)+(2,-16)
V = (5,-11) + (2,-16) = (7,-27)
how did you get (2,-16)?
ddm: They got 2, -16 because they did -11 - 5 which is -16 and 5 - 3 =2. If that makes sense.
