Using proportions, the coordinates of point G are given as follows:
(1.8, 1.6).
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures.
The points A and B are given as follows:
A(-3, 4) and B(5,0).
For this problem, we have that the ratio of AG to GB is 3:2, hence:
AG = 3/5AB
G - A = 3/5(B - A).
The x-coordinate of G is found as follows:
x + 3 = 3/5(5 + 3)
x + 3 = 4.8
x = 1.8.
The y-coordinate of G is found as follows:
y - 4 = 3/5(0 - 4)
y - 4 = -2.4
y = 1.6.
Hence the coordinates of point G are given as follows:
(1.8, 1.6).
