Question

2. Line segment AB has endpoints at A(-9, 3) and B(1, 8).

We want to find the coordinates of point P so that P partitions AB into a
part-to-whole ratio of 1: 5.

Answer 1

To find the coordinates of point P, we can use the formula:

P = (x₁ + 1/6(x₂ - x₁), y₁ + 1/6(y₂ - y₁))

Now let's fill in the correct values:

P = (-9 + 1/6(1 - (-9)), 3 + 1/6(8 - 3))
