Answer:

(0, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the points from which the directed line segment extends = (-6, -6) to (9, -1)

The ratio the required point partitions the line = 2 to 3

The formula for finding the coordinate of a point that partitions a line AB into a ratio 'a' to 'b', where the coordinates of, A = (x₁, y₁) and B = (x₂, y₂) is given as follows;

\left(\dfrac{a}{a + b} \times (x_1 - x_2)+ x_1, \ \dfrac{a}{a + b} \times (y_1 - y_2)+ y_1 \right)

Therefore, the required point is located as follows;

\left(\dfrac{2}{2 + 3} \times (9 - (-6))+ (-6), \ \dfrac{2}{2 + 3}\times (-1 - (-6))+ (-6) \right) = (0, -4)

The coordinates of the point is (0, -4)
