Question

Fan& Medal...Can someone help me?? I've been stuck on this for a while!

A point H on a segment with endpoints B (3, −1) and Z (12, 5) partitions the segment in a 5:1 ratio. Find H. You must show all work to receive credit.

Answer 1

B(3,−1) and Z(12,5)
Ratio of 5:1 at point P(x,y) P(x,y).
I used ( 1(3)+5(12)/ 5+1, 1(−1)+5(5)/5+1 ).
Simplified, this will give you (63/6 , 24/6).
So, H will be (10.5 , 4).

Answer 2

@Owlcoffee Do you think you could see if this one is ok too? :D
