Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint formula is

[tex]M=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex] and we have the coordinates of the midpoint and the coordinates of one endpoint. Filling that in we have:

[tex](-5,-4)=(\frac{-4+x_2}{2},\frac{-7+y_2}{2})[/tex] and we will solve for the missing values one at a time. x first:

[tex]-5=\frac{-4+x_2}{2}[/tex] and

-10 = -4 + x₂ so

-6 = x₂ and do the same for y:

[tex]-4=\frac{-7+y_2}{2}[/tex] and

-8 = -7 + y₂ so

-1 = y₂

Thus, the coordinates of point g are (-6, -1)
