Question

find the ratio in which p(4,M) dibide the line segment joining.the points a(2,-3) b (6,-3) hence find M?

Answer 1

Answer:

Ratio is 1:1 and M is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

a(x1,y1) and b(x2,y2) and p(x,y)

x=mx2+nx1/m+n

4=m(6)+n(2)/m+n

4m+4n=6m+2n

4n-2n=6m-4m

2n=2m

Therefore m:n=1:1

Therefore point p is the midpoint of a and b

so

m= y2+y1/2

m= -3-3/2

m= -6/2

m = -3
