Question

Find the ratio in which the point (2,y) divides the join of (-4,3) and (6,3) and find the value of y

Answer 1

Answer:

ratio=3:2

y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the required ratio be k:1

C(2,y)=[k(6)+1(-4) / k+1  ,  k(3)+1(3) / k+1]

2=6k-4 / k+1

2k+2=6k-4

6k-2k= 4+2

4k=6

∴k=6/4 = 3/2

∴k:1=3/2 :1 ⇒ 3:2

∴y= 3(3)+2(3)/3+2

= 9+6 / 5

=15/5

=3....
