Question

Find the ratio in which y-axis divides the line segment joining the points A(5,-6) and B(-1,-4). Also find Co ordinates of the point of division (the answer giver will be taken as list)

Answer 1

let the ratio be m:n Coordinate=(0,y)

0=(5n+-1m)/2

=>5n-m/2=0

5n-m=0

5n=m

m:n=5:1

and now, y=(-6×1+5×-4)/2

y=-15/2

coordinate =(0,-15/2)
