Answer:

5th Avenue and 8th street

Step-by-step explanation:

The points are (3,5)  and (9,14) for their locations where x= avenue and y= street.

The distance is 1/3 so it can be calculated in the following way

1/3 of ( 9-3) +3 = 1/3*6 + 3= 2+3= 5

1/3 of (14-5) + 5= 1/3*9 + 5= 3+5=8

5th Avenue and 8th street

Pierre and Maria will meet at 5th Avenue and 8th street
