Question

The x cordinate of the point dividing the line segment joining the point 3,5 and 7,9 internally in the ratio 2:3 is

Answer 1

➡HERE IS YOUR ANSWER⬇

♧♧FORMULA♧♧

Let us consider two points A(a, b) and B(c,d).

If any point P(x,y) duvides the line AB in p:q ratio internally, then

(x,y) Ξ ( (aq+cp)/(p+q), (bq+dp)/(p+q) ).


♤♤SOLUTION♤♤

Given points are :

A(3,5) and B(7,9).


So, the point at which the line segment AB is divided internally in the ratio 2:3 is

( (9+14)/(2+3), (15+18)/(2+3) )

i.e., (23/5, 33/5).
