Point a has coordinates (-5, 3). if point (1, 6) is 3/4ths of the way from a to b, what are the coordinates of point b

  (3, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the intermediate point is P. Then we have ...

  P - A = (3/4)(B - A)

  (4/3)(P -A) = B - A . . . . . . . . . multiply by 4/3

  (4/3)P -(4/3)A + A = B . . . . . . add A

  (4P -A)/3 = B . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

Then the coordinates of point B are ...

  B = (4(1, 6) -(-5, 3))/3 = (9, 21)/3

  B = (3, 7)

x equals 1
