Question

Point R is located at (3,2) and point S is located at (8,15)

What are to coordinates of the point that partitions The directed line segment RS in a 1:4 ratio?

Answer 1

was this right

Explanation:

Answer 2

first, find the middle point between (3,2) and (8,15)
(3+8)/2=5.5
(2+15)/2=8.5
next, find the middle point between (3,2) and (5.5,8.5) or between (5.5, 8.5) and (8,15)
(3+5.5)/2=4.25
(2+8.5)/2=5.25
The coordinates of the point are (4.25, 5.25)
