Answer:

The coordinate of B is (18,-24)

Explanation:

AB+BC=AC

We know that AB is 7/9 of BC

First we will look at the x distance

That total x distance is

-3 to 24 or 27 units

7/9 of 27 is 21

Add this to coordinate of A

Add 21 to -3 = 18

Now we will look at the y distance

4 to -32 or 36 units

36 * 7/9 = 28

Subtract this from coordinate from A since we are going down

4-28=-24

The coordinate of B is (18,-24)
