Question

Find the coordinate of the point dividing the
line joining the points (2, 1) and (8,7) in the
ratio 3:1.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

the points are 13/2 and 11/2

Answer 2

Answer:

M1=3

M2=1 as ratio is 3:1

Formula for (x,y) of the line (2,1) and (8,7) is

X= (M1X2 + M2X1) / (M1+M2)

Y= (M1Y2 + M2Y1) / (M1 + M2)

Substitute in this formula so the answer is (13/2,11/2)
