Coordinates (x, y)Slope Formula:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (5, 9)

Point (-3, 9)

Step 2: Identify

x₁ = 5, y = 9

x₂ = -3. y = 9

Step 3: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

Substitute in points [Slope Formula]:                                                              [Slope] [Fraction] Subtract:                                                                               [Slope] [Fraction] Divide:                                                                                  

The coordinates of point a right now is (-3,-1) you have to multiply these coordinates by a factor of 2 to get (-6,-2)
