The midpoint of line segment AB is (3,-1), Point A is at (2,4), where is point B located?
(-2,5)
(5,-4)
(4,-6)
(5/2, 3/2)
In order to find the location of point B, we need to use the midpoint formula. The midpoint formula is:
Midpoint = ((x1 + x2) / 2, (y1 + y2) / 2)
Given that the midpoint of line segment AB is (3, -1) and Point A is at (2,4), we can substitute these values into the formula:
(3,-1) = ((2 + x) / 2, (4 + y) / 2)
Solving for x and y:
2 + x = 6
x = 4
4 + y = -2
y = -6
Therefore, the location of point B is (4, -6), so the correct answer is (4,-6).
