The diameter is twice as big as the radius
3:5 ratio mean there are 8 "parts" (3 + 5 = 8)
The distance between the x-coordinates is |-3 - 5| = 8.
So each "part" is 8/8 = 1 unit long in the x-direction.
You want I to be 3(1) = 3 units from D, so the x-coordinate of I is -3 + 3 = 0.
Same deal for y.
|2 - 5| = 3 is the distance between D and E
Each part is 3/8.
3(3/8) = 9/8
2 + 9/8 = 25/8
So the point I is (0, 25/8)

When in doubt, graph it.
The 3rd and 4th choices are appropriate.

This is what is known as a "logistic function." It is used to model population growth when there is a resource limit. It starts out exponential, but then slows as it reaches the "carrying capacity" of the environment. The lower asymptote is zero; the upper one is the carrying capacity of the resource--here 15/1 = 15.
