Question

find the co ordinates of point p if p divides the line segment joining the points A(1,9) and B(-3,-7) in the ratio 3:4​

Answer 1

Answer:

The coordinates are -5/7, 15/7

Step-by-step explanation:

P( x, y)= ( m1x2+m2x1/m1+m2, m1y2+m2y1/m1+m2}

m1=3

m2=4

x1=1   y1=9

x2= -3   y2=-7

P (x, y)= {-9+4/7, -21+36/7}

P( x, y)=( -5/7, 15/7}
