A point charge q 1 = -1.5 C is at the origin, and a second point charge

Question:

A point charge q1 = -1.5 C is at the origin, and a second point charge q2 = +5.0 C is at the point x = 1.2 m, y = 2.5 m. 

(a) Find the x and y coordinates of the position at which an electron would be in equilibrium. 

(b) Find the x and y coordinates of the position at which a proton would be in equilibrium. 

(c) Suppose the charges q1 and q2 were both doubled. How would your answers change? Why?
