The coordinates of B would be (2, -4)

In order to find this, we need to know that the value of M's points will always be the average of A and B's points. This is because it is the midpoint. Therefore we can use the following formula.

Value of x

(A + B)/2 = M

(-8 + B)/2 = -3

-8 + B = -6

B = 2

Then we can do the same for the y values

Value of y

(A + B)/2 = M

(-2 + B)/2 = -3

-2 + B = -6

B = 4
