Answer:


R(x,y) = (0.8,-1.2)

Explanation:

The coordinates of QS are:


Q(x_1,y_1) = (-2,-6)


S(x_2,y_2) = (5,6)

The ratio is represented as:


R_(m:n) = 2:3

Required

Find the coordinates of R

The coordinates of R is calculated by:


R(x,y) = ((mx_2 + nx_1)/(m+n),(my_2 + ny_1)/(m+n))

Substitute values for m, n, x's and y's


R(x,y) = ((2 * 5 + 3 * -2)/(2+3),(2*6 + 3*-6)/(2+3))


R(x,y) = ((4)/(5),(-6)/(5))


R(x,y) = (0.8,-1.2)

None of the options is correct
