The 1:3 ratio means that the distance from A to the point is 1/4 of the distance from A to B.
The difference of y-coordinates is 10-8 = 2. 1/4 of that is 2·1/4 = 1/2, so the point of interest will have y-coordinate 8 + 1/2 = 8 1/2. This apparently corresponds to the first selection:
... (6 1/2, 8 1/2)

Answer:
Teo is 11 years old and Richard is 26 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let R be the age of Richard and T be the age of Teo.
<u><em>First set up the equations:</em></u>
The combined age of Teo and Richard is 37:
R+T=37
Richard is four years old than twice Teo's age:
R=2T+4
<u><em>Then, solve the equations:</em></u>
Substitute (2) to (1) and solve for T:
(2T+4)+T=37
3T=11
T=11
Solve for R using (2):
R=2(11)+4
R=22+4
R=26
