The map shows a straight highway between two towns. Highway planners want to build two new rest stops between the towns so that two rest stops divided the highway into three equal parts. Find the coordinates of the points at which the rest stops should be built.

Answer :

1,1 and -1,0 would be the answer

(-2, -1/3)   and   (1,  1 1/3) the coordinates of the points at which the rest stops should be built.

What is coordinates point?

A pair of numbers that describe the position of a point on a coordinate plane by using the horizontal and vertical distances from the two reference axes.

According to the question,

In given figure,

x   from  -3   to  +3    

1/3   would be  -2    

2/3 would be   +1

y   from  -2  to  +3        

1/3  would be   -2 + 5/3 = -1/3      

2/3 would be  -2 + 10/3 = 1 1/3

The two coordinates

(-2, -1/3)   and   (1,  1 1/3)  

Hence ,  (-2, -1/3)   and  (1,  1 1/3)  the coordinates of the points at which the rest stops should be built.
