Answer:
(-3, 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The blanks are trying to lead you through the process of finding the point of interest.
__
The horizontal distance from T to S is <u> 9 </u>. (or -9, if you prefer)
The ratio you're trying to divide the line into is the ratio that goes in this blank:
Multiply the horizontal distance by <u> 2/3 </u>. (9×2/3 = 6)
Move <u> 6 </u> units <u> left </u> from point T.
The vertical distance from T to S is <u> 6 </u>.
Multiply the vertical distance by <u> 2/3 </u>. (6×2/3 = 4)
Move <u> 4 </u> units <u> up </u> from point T.
__
Point T is (3, -1) so 6 left and 4 up is (3, -1) +(-6, 4) = (3-6, -1+4) = (-3, 3). The point that is 2/3 of the way from T to S is (-3, 3).
