Point A is located at (0,4) and point B is located at (-2,-3). Find the point that is 1 over 4 the distance from point A to point B.
---------------
Find the midpoint, M
It's the average of x & y for A & B
M (-1,1/2)
---
Then find Q, midway between A & M
Q (-1/2,9/4)
====================
PS Don't put a space after the comma in points.
1 over 4 = 1/4
