Answer:

  • ( -9, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can observe that x coordinate increases on line segment JL from J and y coordinate decreases.

The difference in x:

  • -18 - 3 = -21

The difference in y:

  • 17 - (-11) = 28

Point K is at 3/7 distance from J, so it's coordinates will be:

  • -18 -(-21*3/7) = -18 + 9 = -9
  • 17 - (28*3/7) = 12- 7 = 5

So K = ( -9, 5)
