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 3/4 the distance from point E to point F.
a. 1.75

b. 0.5

c. −2

d. −1.5

Answer 1

heard of "section formula" before ?

Answer 2

no

Answer 3

wat about "midpoint formula" ?

Answer 4

no

Answer 5

just take average of "y" coordinates, that gives u midpoint

Answer 6

(2, −3) and (−2, −1)
^^ ^^

Answer 7

"y" coordinate of midpoint = (-3-1)/2 = -4/2 = -2

Answer 8

that lies HALF the distance between given points.
but u want the point that lies at 3/4 distance between given points, right ?

Answer 9

ok
