Using proportions, the coordinates of the point 3/4 of the way from P to Q are: (0,4).

<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 or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.

We want to find the coordinates of point M(x,y) 3/4 of the way from P to Q, hence the rule is given by:

M - P = 3/4(Q - P)

For the x-coordinate, we have that:

x + 6 = 3/4(2 + 6)

x + 6 = 6

x  = 0.

For the y-coordinate, we have that:

y + 5 = 3/4(7 + 5)

y + 5 = 9.

y = 4.

The coordinates are (0,4).
