A segment with endpoints at A(2,-2) and B(14,4) is extended through B to point C. If BC = 1/2*AB, what are the coordinates for point C? Express your answer as an ordered pair.

The distance between A and B is 12 across, and 6 up.

 

Because the distance between B and C is half of the distance, C will be 6 units across, and 3 units above B, meaning that C is (20,7)
