Points A (-10,-6) and B (6,2) are the endpoints of AB. What are the coordinates of point C on AB such that AC is 3/4 the length of AB?
a. (0,-1)
b. (2,0)
c. (-2,-2)
d. (4,1)

B.) (2, 0)
first u find how long AB is which is (16, 8) in length.... 10+6 = 16 and 6+2 = 8.
3/4 * 16 = 12
3/4 * 8 = 6
so starting on point A add (12, 6) to (-10,-6) you will get (2,0) because 12-10=2; 6-6=0
3/4 * 16 = 12
3/4 * 8 = 6
so starting on point A add (12, 6) to (-10,-6) you will get (2,0) because 12-10=2; 6-6=0
YOU are correct.
