Answer:

The coordinates of P is;

[tex](-25,13)[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that;

Point A is located at (7, -3) and point M is located at (-9,5).

And;

M is the midpoint of segment AP.

The coordinate of P will be represented by;

[tex]P=(x_2,y_2)[/tex]

Using the formula for calculating midpoint;

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} \\ y=\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Making x2 and y2 the subject of formula;

[tex]\begin{gathered} x_2=2x-x_1 \\ y_2=2y-y_1 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, substituting the given coordinates;

[tex]\begin{gathered} M=(x,y)=(-9,5) \\ A=(x_1,y_1)=(7,-3) \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, we have;

[tex]\begin{gathered} x_2=2x-x_1 \\ x_2=2(-9)-7 \\ x_2=-25 \end{gathered}[/tex]

And;

[tex]\begin{gathered} y_2=2y-y_1 \\ y_2=2(5)-(-3)=10+3 \\ y_2=13 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the coordinates of P is;

[tex](-25,13)[/tex]
