The midpoint formula is as follows

[tex]M=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]

Plug in the information we know.

[tex](1,-2)=(\frac{7+x_2}{2},\frac{2+y_2}{2})[/tex]

Solve for [tex]x[/tex]

[tex]1=\frac{7+x_2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]2=7+x_2[/tex]

[tex]x_2=-5[/tex]

Solve for [tex]y[/tex]

[tex]-2=\frac{2+y_2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]-4=2+y_2[/tex]

[tex]y_2=-6[/tex]

The other endpoint of the segment is [tex](-5,-6)[/tex]

Hope this helps.

頑張って!
