Question

1. Find the coordinates of the point which divides the join of (-1,7) and (4, -3) in the
ratio 2:3​

Answer 1

pointx=12/5 and pointy=-12/5......

Answer 2

Answer:

(1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x1, y1) = (-1, 7)

(x2, y2) =4, -3)

mq:m2= 2:3

P(x y) = ((m2x1+m1x2) /(m1+?2),(m2y1+m1y2) /(m1+?2))

=( (2 X 4+3 X (-1) /5, 2 X (-3) + 3 X 7) /5)

= ((8-3)/5, (21-6)/5)

= (5/5,15/5)

= (1,3)
