Answer:
Answer:The ratio is 3:4
A(2,5) B(x,y) and C divides the line at C(-1,2)
Step-by-step explanation:For X coordinate
-1=3*x+4*2/3+4
-1=3x+8/7
-7-8=3x
-15=3x
X=-5
For y coordinate :
2=3y+4*5/7
14=3y+20
14-20=3y
-6=3y
Y=-6/3
Y=-2
So x= -5 and y= -2

Answer:
C divides A & B in the ratio 3:4 internally
By section formula
3+4
3x+4(2)
=−1,
3+4
3y+4(5)
=2
⇒3x+8=−7, 3y+20=14
x=

−15
, 3y=−6
⇒x=−5, y=−2
