Question

the coordinate of point x on pq that is 3/4 of the distance from p to q is

Explanation:

Step1: Identify coordinates of P and Q

$P=-5$, $Q = 7$

Step2: Calculate the distance from P to Q

$d=Q - P=7-(-5)=12$

Step3: Find $\frac{3}{4}$ of the distance

$\frac{3}{4}\times12 = 9$

Step4: Calculate the coordinate of point X

$X=P + 9=-5 + 9=4$

Answer:

$4$
