Quadrilateral PQRS

PQRS is a quadrilateral with P(4,4), S(8,8), and R(12,8). If vector PQ=4*vector SR, find the coordinates of Q. Solve it

Correct answer:

x =  20
y =  4

Step-by-step explanation:

P=(4,4) S=(8,8) R=(12,8)  PQ=4 SR Q=(x,y)  x−Px​=4⋅ (Rx​−Sx​) x−4=4⋅ (12−8)  x=20  x=120​=20  x=20
y−Py​=4⋅ (Ry​−Sy​) y−4=4⋅ (8−8)  y=4  y=14​=4  y=4
