A line intersects the y-axis and x-axis at the points P and Q, respectively. If (2, –5) is the mid-point of PQ, then the coordinates of P and Q are, respectively
A:(0, 4) and (– 10, 0)
B:(0, – 10) and (4, 0)
C:(0, 10) and (– 4, 0)
D:(0, – 5) and (2, 0)

Question
A line intersects the y-axis and x-axis at the points P and Q, respectively. If (2, –5) is the mid-point of PQ, then the coordinates of P and Q are, respectively
A:(0, 4) and (– 10, 0)
B:(0, – 10) and (4, 0)
C:(0, 10) and (– 4, 0)
D:(0, – 5) and (2, 0)
Answer
Let the coordinates of P (0, y) and Q (x, 0).
So, the mid - point of P (0, y) and Q (x, 0) = M
Coordinates of M =
Mid - point of a line segment having points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)
=
Given,
Mid - point of PQ is (2, - 5)
= 4 = x + 0
x = 4
= - 10 = y + 0
- 10 = y
So,
x = 4 and y = - 10
Thus, the coordinates of P and Q are (0, - 10) and (4, 0)
Therefore the choice is: B
Explanation:
as p is the center of the circle it divides the line in two equal part I.e AP=BP
let co coordinates of A be x1,y1 ,P x,y ,Bx2,y2
therefore, by mid point them.
x=x1+x2/2
2=-2+x1/2
2×2=-2+x1
4=-2+x1
4+2 =x1
x1=6
y=y1+y2/2
-3=0+y2/2
-3×2=y2
-6=y2
therefore the coordinates of B are 6,-6
