For the answer to the question above, to solve these questions, use this formula: X3= F(X1-X2) Y3= F(Y1-Y2)
Where X3 is the X value in the coordinate your solving for, F is the fraction,
X1 is the first X and X
2 is the second X Plug in your numbers to fit this: X3= 1/4 x (0--2) Y3= 1/4 x (4- -3) By solving you get: (-.5, 1.75)

Answer:

Third choice: -0.5 is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The x-value of point A is 0.
  • The x-value of point B is -2.

The total distance from point A to point B is 2, which means we need to divide 2 by 4, because the x-value we need to find is 1/4 of the distance.

[tex]\frac{1}{4}-2= -0.5[/tex]

Therefore, the x-value is -0.5. So, the right answer is the third choice.
