<em>The aspects of a story that best help the reader understand the author, I think, are imagery, repetition, and tone. These three help make the thoughts of the author concrete and understandable. Even more so than imagery and repetition, tone is often known and noted to be very important in understanding the author's purposes. </em>
<em>Plot and setting have more to do with characters than with the author's intentions, although they still do.</em>

Answer: D) (–2.2, –1.2)
Explanation: to divide the segment into a 3:2 ratio, we need to divide the segment into five identical parts, and find the point that divides the segment into 3/5 and 2/5. To do this we have to calculate the distance between the two points of the segment, in x and y, we can do this by just subtracting the two "y" coordinates and the two "x" coordinates:
Δy=║-4-3║=7
Δx=║-1-(-4)║=3
Then we divide those differences by 5.
7/5=1.4
3/5=0.6
and now, we multiply those results by 3 and subtract them or add them from the coordinates of the point G (subtract them from the coordinate y and add it to the coordinate x, because we are moving down and right).
Px=-4+3*0.6=-2.2
Py=3-3*1.4=-1.2
so the coordinates of the point we are looking for (which I called "P") are:
P(-2.2, -1.2).
C. Simplicity is the way to go and I chuckled so thanks
A is a good one to do it in the question
