Answer:

Coordinates of R = (1,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the coordinate of R be (x, y)

Since coordinates of S and T are S(-9,-4) and T(6,5). Then we can use the Formula for length of line from coordinates to find coordinates of R since SR/RT = 2/1

Thus; 1(S) = 2(T)

Coordinates of R = [(1(-9) + 2(6))/(1 + 2)], [(1(-4) + 2(5))/(1 + 2)

Coordinates of R = (3/3), (6/3)

>> (1, 2)
