Line segment AB has endpoints A(2, 5) and B(6, 2). Find the coordinates of the point that divides the line segment directed from A to B in the ratio of 1:2.

Respuesta :

Im not sure what the x value would be but the y value is 4. I hope this helps!

Answer: B. (10/3, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

(10/3, 4)

(mx2 + nx1)                    (my2 + ny1)

(m + n)                ,           (m + n)

Where the point divides the segment internally in the ratio m:n

((1)(6) + (2)(2))          ((1)(2) + (2)(5))      =      10/3  

   (1 + 2)                ,         (1 + 2)          =       , 4
