Answer:
We know that, the coordinates of the point dividing the line segment joining the points x
1
,y
1
and x
2
,y

in the ratio m:n is given by (
m

)
Given (x

,y
1
)=(−1,7); (x
2
,y
2
)=(4,−3)
(m

)=2:3
Coordinates of point of intersection of line segment is
(
2+3
(2)(4)+(3)(−1)
,
2+3
(2)(−3)+(3)(7)
)
=(5/5,15/5)
=(1,3)
