Keeping in mind that, the segment is split in three thirds, and the point is 2/3 of the way, so is closer to (9, -2), with a 2:1 ratio, check the picture below.

\bf \left. \qquad  \right.\textit{internal division of a line segment}
\\\\\\
A(3,4)\qquad B(9,-2)\qquad
\qquad 2:1
\\\\\\
\cfrac{AC}{CB} = \cfrac{2}{1}\implies \cfrac{A}{B} = \cfrac{2}{1}\implies 1A=2B\implies 1(3,4)=2(9,-2)\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
{ C=\left(\cfrac{\textit{sum of "x" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{\textit{sum of "y" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\right)}\\\\
-------------------------------

\bf C=\left(\cfrac{(1\cdot 3)+(2\cdot 9)}{2+1}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{(1\cdot 4)+(2\cdot -2)}{2+1}\right)
\\\\\\
C=\left( \cfrac{3+18}{3}~~,~~\cfrac{4-4}{3} \right)\implies C=\left( 7~~,~~0 \right)
