Answer 1

therefore m:n = 5:2
(by section formula)

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let ratio be k is to 1 then

P(4k-3)/k+1;( -9k+5)/k+1

Therefore( 4k-3)/k+1=2 ,(-9k+5)/k+1=-5

>4k-3=2k+2 ,-9k+5=-5k-5

>2k=5,4k=10

>k=5/2(both cases)

Required ratio is 5/2:1

>5:2

Required ratio is 5:2
