Answer:

The coordinates of B are (-2 , 9)

Step-by-step explanation:

A (8, 4)

M (3 , -1)

To calculate a midpoint you have to add the corresponding coordinates of each point and divide them by 2

(Ax + Bx) / 2 = Mx

(8 + Bx) / 2 = 3

8 + Bx = 3 * 2

Bx = 6 - 8

Bx = -2

(Ay + By) / 2 = My

( -1 + By) / 2 = 4

-1 + By = 4 * 2

By = 8 + 1

By = 9

The coordinates of B are (-2 , 9)
