Answer:
a=(-3,-6) and b=(12,4)
from -3 to 12 is 15 units
7/10 * 15=10.5
add 10.5 to -3 to get 7.5 for the x-coordinate
from -6 to 4 is 10 units
7/10 * 10=7
add 7 to -6 to get 1 for the y-coordinate
the point 7/10 of the way from a to b is (7.5,1) ANSWER
graph these points to check your answer (the point (7.5,1) is on the line segment AB))
also, the distance from a to b is 18.0277
7/10 of this is 12.62
the distance from (-3,-6) to (7.5,1) is also 12.62
