Question

I really need help with this question. I have attached two screenshots, the first is the question and the second one is the options that I have as the answer. I would really appreciate an answer!!!

Answer 1

Using proportions, it is found that the coordinates of point B are given as follows:

A. (1.6, 0).

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

Point B is 3/4 of the way from AB to AC, hence:

$B - A = \frac{3}{4}(C - A)$

The points are:

• A(-2,-3).

• B(x,y).

• C(3,1).

Then, to find the x-coordinate:

$x + 2 = \frac{3}{4}(3 + 2)$

x + 2 = 3.6.

x = 1.6.

For the y-coordinate:

$y + 3 = \frac{3}{4}(1 + 3)$

y + 3 = 3

y = 0.

Hence option A is correct.
