What are the coordinates of the point on the directed line segment from (-4,3) to(-2,-5) that partitions the segment into a ratio of 1 to 3?

1+3 = 4     we need point  1/4 of way from -4,3

 

x       from   - 4 to -2   is distance of 2       1/4 of this added to -4    =    1/4 *2   +  -4 = -3.5 = x

y         see if you can do the same thing for y.......
