To find the coordinates of point H, we can use the ratio of AH to HB.
Let's call the coordinates of point A (x1, y1) and the coordinates of point B (x2, y2).
We know that the ratio of AH to HB is 1:4. This means that the length of segment AH is 1/5 of the length of segment AB, and the length of segment HB is 4/5 of the length of segment AB.
Using the distance formula, we can calculate the length of segment AB:
AB = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
Then, we can find the coordinates of point H using the formula:
xH = x1 + (1/5)(x2 - x1)
yH = y1 + (1/5)(y2 - y1)
Substituting the known coordinates of points A and B, we can calculate the coordinates of point H.
Segment upper A upper B is graphed on a coordinate plane. The x-axis ranges from negative 1 to 4 in increments of 1. The y-axis ranges from negative 1 to 8 in increments of 1.

To find the coordinates of point H, we will use the formula mentioned earlier:
xH = x1 + (1/5)(x2 - x1)
yH = y1 + (1/5)(y2 - y1)
Using the coordinates of point A (0.75, 1.5) and point B (-1, -2), we can substitute these values into the formula:
xH = 0.75 + (1/5)(-1 - 0.75) = 0.75 + (-0.35) = 0.4
yH = 1.5 + (1/5)(-2 - 1.5) = 1.5 + (-0.7) = 0.8
Therefore, the coordinates of point H are (0.4, 0.8).
xH = x1 + (1/5)(x2 - x1)
yH = y1 + (1/5)(y2 - y1)
Using the coordinates of point A (0.75, 1.5) and point B (-1, -2), we can substitute these values into the formula:
xH = 0.75 + (1/5)(-1 - 0.75) = 0.75 + (-0.35) = 0.4
yH = 1.5 + (1/5)(-2 - 1.5) = 1.5 + (-0.7) = 0.8
Therefore, the coordinates of point H are (0.4, 0.8).

Apologies for the misunderstanding.
To find the coordinates of point H when the ratio of AH to HB is 1:4, we can follow the same formula mentioned earlier:
xH = x1 + (1/5)(x2 - x1)
yH = y1 + (1/5)(y2 - y1)
Using the coordinates of point A (0.75, 1.5) and point B (0.2, 0.2), we can substitute these values into the formula:
xH = 0.75 + (1/5)(0.2 - 0.75) = 0.75 + (-0.11) = 0.64
yH = 1.5 + (1/5)(0.2 - 1.5) = 1.5 + (-0.26) = 1.24
Therefore, the coordinates of point H are (0.64, 1.24).
