Answer:
We know that by section formula, the co-ordinates of the points which divide internally the line segment joining the points (x 1 ,y 1 ) and (x 2 ,y 2 ) in the ratio m:n is
Step-by-step explanation:
(x,y)=( m+n mx 2 +nx 1 , m+n my 2 +ny 1 )
Now we have to find ratio
Let ratio be k:1
Hence
m1 =k, m=1
=x1 =1, y 1 =−5
x 2=−4, y 2 =5
Also
x=x , y=0Hence the coordinate of point is P(x,0)=P( 2 −3 ,0)
