Question

4. Find the ratio in which the line segment
joining the points A(3, 8) and B(-9, 3) is
divided by the Y-axis.​

Answer 1

Answer:

you can solve by the help of section formula thai is

mx2+nx1/m+n

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the divided point coordinate is (0,y) then now proceed it.....

Answer 2

Answer:

it is divided by y axis, therefore

x=0

given, x1=3, y1=8 and x2= -9, y2=3

x=m1x2 + m2xx1 / m1+m2

0=m1-9+m2×3/m1+m2

0(m1+m2) =-9m1+3m2

0= -9m1+3m2

9m1=3m2

m1/m2=3/9

m1/m2=1/3

m1:m2=1:3

therefore,

the ratio is 1:3
