Question

Point P is located at (−2, 7), and point R is located at (1, 0). Find the y value for the point Q that is located two over three the distance from point P to point R.

Answer 1

hi welcome to OPENSTUDY!

you know that:
\(\LARGE \frac{PQ}{QR}=\frac{2}{3}\)

Answer 2

and you also know that point \(Q(x,y)\) lies on the line where points P (−2, 7) and R (1, 0) lie.
So using the slope formula, find the slope of the line where these points lie.
can you do that?
