Question

What are the coordinates of the point ? SHOW STEP BY STEP

Answer 1

(3, 0)

Explanation:

Use the formula:

`(a)/(a+b)`(x2 - x1) + x1,
`(a)/(a+b)`(y2 - y1) + y1

a and b are the numbers in the ratio: a:b

Substitute everything into the equation.

2/2+1(6 - -3) + (-3)

2/2+1(1 - -2) + (-2)

Now combine like terms.

2/3(9) -3

2/3(3) -2

Solve.

6 - 3

2 - 2

(3, 0)

I hope this helps!
