Answer:

  • R(2, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates of Q and S are:

  • Q(8, -5), S(-8, 3)

We need to find the coordinates of R such that:

  • QR : RS = 3 : 5

Let R has coordinates (x, y):

  • x = 8 + 3/8(-8 - 8) = 8 - 6 = 2
  • y = -5 + 3/8(3 + 5) = -5 + 3 = -2

The point is R(2, -2)
