Answer:
(−4, 10)
Step-by-step explanation:
B = (x, y)
(2 + x) ÷ 2 = -1
therefore x is -4
(6 + y) ÷ 2 = 8
therefore y is 10

The coordinate point of point B (x₁, y₁) will be (−4, 10). Then the correct option is D.
Coordinate geometry is the study of geometry using the points in space. Using this, it is possible to find the distance between the points, the dividing line is m:n ratio, finding the mid-point of the line, etc.
Point A is located at (2, 6), and point M is located at (−1, 8). If point M is the midpoint of segment AB.
Then the coordinate of the point B(x₁, y₁) will be
We know that the mid-point formula
[tex]\rm (x,y) \ \ = \left ( \dfrac{x_2+x_1}{2}, \dfrac{y_2+y_1}{2} \right )\\\\(-1, 8) = \left ( \dfrac{2+x_1}{2}, \dfrac{6+y_1}{2} \right )[/tex]
Then the value of x₁ and y₁ will be
[tex]\rm x_1 = -4\\\\y_1 = 10[/tex]
Then the coordinate point of B (x₁, y₁) is (−4, 10).
