Question

A point (6, a) divides the line joining A (-3,-1) and B (-8,9) in the ratio k: 1. Find the value
of 'a' and 'k'.​

Answer 1

Answer:

(6,a)=(-8.k-3.1/1+k),(9.k-1.1/1+k)

6=-8k-3/1+k 6+6k=-8k-3

• 8k+6k=-3-6
• 14k=-9
• k=-9/14

a=9k-1/1+k. a+ak=9k-1

• a+a.-9/14=9.-9/14-1
• 14a-9a/14=-81/14-1
• 5a/14=-81-14/14
• 5a=-95
• a=-19
• a=-19. k=-9/14
