Answer:
C. 2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
The following information is missing: J is at (-3, 4). K is at (4,-2).
The x value for point L such that JL and KL form a 3:1 ratio is obtained as follows:
- m/(m+n)*run + xJ
where ratio m:n givesfraction m/(m+n), run is the distance over x-axis between J and K, and xJ is the x-coordinate of J.
- ratio 3:1 means: m/(m+n) = 3/(3+1) = 3/4
- run = 4 - (-3) = 7
- xJ = -3
Replacing into the equation:
m/(m+n)*run + xJ = 3/4*7 + (-3) = 2.25
