Question

identify the coordinate pair of the points that partitions ab at a 4:1 ratio round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary coordinates for point a: (-4,-3) cordinates for point b: (7,6).

Answer 1

If you want to divide into 'ratios' then add the total of theratios -
e.g.10:3 =13 5:1 = 6

You then need to divide the item into this tot.al number.

You can divide the x and the y lengths separatel.

So first mark on my drawinf the lengths of the 2 dotted lines.

Use the co-ordinates of the points given...
