Question

find the ratio in which the point ( - 3 , p) divides the line segment joining the points ( -5 , -4) and ( -2 , 3) . Hence find the value of p​

Answer 1

Answer:

2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

(-3,p)= (-5m2 + -2m1 ÷m1+m2 , -4m2 + 3m1 ÷m1+m2)

-3= -5m2 -2m1÷m1+m2

-3m1 -3m2 = -5m2 -2m1

2m2 = 1m1

m1/m2 = 2/1
