Question

find the ratio in which the line segment joining the point A(-3,2)and B(6,1)is divide by the y-axis
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given the points A(-3,2) and B(6,1)

Let the coordinate of points of division be (0,y)

Let the ratio be m:n

∴ The coordinate are given by (  

m+n

⟹(

Given the x-coordinate =0 (as it is divided by y axis)

∴
