Answer:
Final answer: P=(1,5)
Explanation:
The line APB is a line such that AP/PB= 1/3. From the points A and B that we have we can find the distance between those points using the formula d= [(y2-y1)^2=(x2-x1)^2]^1/2
d= 4 (13)^(1/2)
Now the ratio is 1:3. AP= sq rt(13) and PB= 3 sq rt(13)
Using mid point formula the mid point of AB (say Q) = [(-1+7)/2,(2+14)/2]= (3,8).
Hence the mid point of AQ is P which can found out again using the mid point formula
P= [(-1+3)/2,(2+8)/2]= (1,5)
