Question

Point E is located at (2, −3), and point F is located at (−2, −1). Find the y-value for the point that is 3 over 4 the distance from point E to point F.

−2.5
−2
−1
−1.5

Answer 1

−1.5

Have a nice day!

Answer 2

-1.5

Explanation:

let k be the Unknown point and YK it’s y-value

Yk - YE = 3/4(YF - YE)

⇔

Yk =YE + 3/4(YF - YE)

⇔

Yk = -3 +3/4(-1 - (-3))

⇔

Yk = -3 + 3/2

⇔

Yk = -1.5
