You can put this solution on YOUR website! What are the coordinates of the point that is 3/8 of the way from A(-8,-9) to B(24,-1)?
-------------
Do x and y separately.
For x:
-8 to 24 = 32
3/8 of 32 = 12
Add 12 to the x of point A --> 4
-----------
For y:
-9 to -1 = 8
3/8 of 8 = 3
Add 3 to the y of point A --> -6
============
--> (4,-6)
