Question

the point which divides the line segment joining the point (7 -6) and (3 4) the ratio m:n internally lies in which quadrant

Answer 1

Answer:

Hence the unknown point is P(5,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknow point be P(x,y)

Given = ratio = m:n

Using the midpoint formula

x2 + x1/2 = x

3+7/2 = x

x = 10/2

x = 5

y2 + y1/2 = y

4 - 6/2 = y

-2/2 = y

y = -1
