To find the point E, we need to determine the distance between C and D, which is 16 units (7 - (-9)).
Next, we need to find a point that is one-fourth of the distance from C to D.
Since 16 units divided by 4 is 4, the point E is located 4 units away from C towards D.
Therefore, the point E is at -9 + 4 = -5.
So the answer is B. -5.
Find a point E on ModifyingAbove C D with bar such that the ratio of ModifyingAbove C E with bar to ModifyingAbove C D with bar is one-fourth.
