Answer 2

Hi!

Answer:

C.-0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

A(0,4) C(-3,5)

distance between x-coordinates is 3

distance between y-coordinates is 1

We're asked to find point B which

is located 1/4 distance from point A to point C.

So we will take the distance of the x-coordinates and y-coordinates and multiply them by 1/4.

3 x 1/4 = 0.75

1 x 1/4 = 0.25

Now, we are looking for the x value in which point B is located, on a coordinate grid C is to the left of A, which means this is a negative movement. Thus, all we have to do is subtract 0.75 from 0 since it is negative.

0 - 0.75 = -0.75

Then that's

the x value for point B.

Hope this helped!
