Answer 1

Answer:

pl s mark as brainliest and follow me

Answer 2

Answer:

(-1, 0) and (-4, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Points of trisection would be two points that divide the line segment into three equal portions.

let (2,-2) be A and (-7,4) be B.

the points of trisection are P and Q.

A P Q B

.___.___.___.

For P, Ratio = 1:2

Point P has coordinates (2)(2)+(1)(-7)/3, (2)(-2)+(1)(4)/3

=(-1,0)

For Q, Ratio= 2:1

Point Q has coordinates (1)(2)+(2)(-7)/3, (1)(-2)+(2)(4)/3

=(-4, 2)
