Option 2 : (5, -1)

Concept:

The coordinates of a point say P dividing a line segment AB in the ratio l: m where A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2) are:

Calculation:

Here we have to find the point P that divides the line segment directed from A (4, -3) to B (8, 5) in the ratio of 1 : 3, hence coordinates of point P are:

⇒ (5, -1)
