Question

Find the co-ordinates of point which divides the line joining the point ( -4,7)&(4,-3) in the ratio 2:3 I NEED WITH STEPS

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

sol:

    let's take m:n as 2:3

    so,by using section formula

            [mx2+nx1/m+n , my2+ny1/m+n]                      

              (-4,7) ; (4,-3)

             X1=-4 , y1=7

             x2=4 , y2=-3

       As per the formula,

    [2(4)+3(-4)/2+3 , 2(-3)+3(7)/2+3]

    [8+(-12)/5 , (-6)+21/5]

[-4/5 , 3]

=> [-4/5 , 3]
