Answer:

(0, 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the midpoint formula expressed as;

M (X, Y )= [(ax1+bx2/a+b), (ay1+by2/a+b)]

where a and b are the ratios

Given

a = 2

b = 1

x1 = -3

y1 = 6

x2 = 6

y2 = 9

Get the coordinate of B

Get X;

X = ax1+bx2/a+b

X = 2(-3)+1(6)/2+1

X = -6+6/3

X = 0/3

X = 0

Get Y;

Y = ay1+by2/a+b

Y = 2(6)+1(9)/2+1

Y = 12+9/3

Y = 21/3

Y = 7

Hence the coordinate of B is (0, 7)
