Question

The ratio in which the line segment joining (7,9)and(-3,5)is divided by x-axis is​

Answer 1

Answer:

the point at which the line segment joining these point is 7/3

Step-by-step explanation:

let the ratio be k:1

therefore $\frac{-3k+7}{k+1}$=0

taking k+1 to RHS we get 0×k+1

then -3k+7=0

taking 7 that side

-3k=-7

taking -3 that side we get

k= $\frac{-7}{-3}$

which gives k=$\frac{7}{3}$
