Answer 2

Answer:

(0,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points are A(-2,5) and B(3,-5).

Let P(x,y) divides AB in the ratio 2:3.

Here, x₁ = -2, y₁ = 5, x₂ = 3, y₂ = -5, m₁ = 2, m₂ = 3.

(i)

x = (m₁x₂ + m₂x₁)/(m + n)

  = (6 - 6)/5

  = 0.

(ii)

y = (m₁y₂ + m₂y₁)/(m + n)

  = (-10 + 15)/5

  = 5/5

  = 1.

Therefore, the required coordinates are P(0,1).

Hope it helps!
