I plotted the points on graph paper and called them A and B and drew AB.
I drew the vertical line BC and the horizontal line AC, making right
triangle ABC.
I guessed about where the desired point D would be and drew DE parallel
to AC.
Counting blocks, I noticed that BC = 8 and AC = 4.
By similar triangles DBE and ABC,
BE + EC = BC = 8
EC = 8 - BE
}
E is 24/7 units below B, so its y-coordinate is
That's also the y-coordinate of D. We need
the x-coordinate of D, so we need to find DE.
By similar triangles DBE and ABC,
Since D is 12/7 units left of E, which has
x-coordinate 6, the x-coordinate of D is
Therefore the answer is
