Answer;

The coordiantes of the point Q is;

[tex](1,3)[/tex]

Explanation;

Here, we want to get the coordinates of the other endpoint

Mathematically, we can find the midpoint of two endpoints using the formula below;

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

The notation 1 and 2 represents the coordinates of the two end points

Now, by replacing the values given in the question, we have it that;

(x,y) is the coordinate of the point m which is (-2,1)

Now the first end point has the coordinates (-5,-1)

The second endpoint Q has the endpoint (x2,y2) which we want to calculate

We proceed to make the substitutions as follows;

[tex](-2,1)\text{ =}\frac{(-5+x_2)}{2},\frac{(-1+y_2)}{2}[/tex]

We proceed to susbtitute the individual branches as follows;

[tex]\begin{gathered} -2\text{ = }\frac{-5+x_2}{2} \\ 2(-2)=-5+x_2 \\ -4=-5+x_2 \\ x_2=-4+5 \\ x_2\text{ = 1} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Finally, we have;

[tex]\begin{gathered} 1=\frac{-1+y_2}{2} \\ 2(1)=-1+y_2 \\ 2+1=y_2 \\ y_2\text{ = }3 \end{gathered}[/tex]
