Question

the line connecting points A(1,2) and b(4,-5) divides the segment X -axis A in what ratio?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If it is x-axis the coordinates of the point is (x,0).

Section formula:

p(x.y)=[m1x2+m2x1/m1+m2, m1y2+m2y1/m1+m2]

(x,y)=(x,0)

(X1,y1)=(1,2)

(X2,y2)=4,-5)

(x,0)=[4m1+1m2/M1+m2, -5m1+2m2/m1+m2]

By equating y coordinates, we get

0= -5m1+2m2/m1+m2

0(m1+m2)= -5m1+2m2

5m1=2m2

M1/m2=2/5.

Therefore, the ratio is 2:5.
