From the endpoint to the midpoin  x  goes from  6 ---->  1   (or -5)     move x another -5 to get the other endpoint  x = -4

                                                       y                    0----> 10  (or +10)             y              10                                         y= 20

Other endpoint is thus   (-4, 20)

Using the midpoint formula, we have :

 

[ 6 + x ] / 2   = 1       and     [ 0 + y ] / 2  = 10

 

Multiply both sides by 2

 

6 + x   = 2                                                0 + y = 20

 

subtract 6 from both sides

 

x = -4                                                             y = 20

 

So.......the other endpoint is  ( -4, 20).......just as EP found    !!!!
