Question

HELP PLEASE

A segment with endpoints A (2, 6) and C (5, 9) is partitioned by a point B such that AB and BC form a 3:1 ratio. Find B.

(2.33, 6.33)

(3.5, 10.5)

(3.66, 7.66)

(4.25, 8.25)

Answer 1

Okay. the interval of the x parts is 2 to 5, giving us a distance of 3.

3/4 = 1 part so 3*3/4 = 3 parts, agreed?

Answer 2

this is how .... you work the x and y parts

or Bx = 5 - 1*3/4 either way gets us to the same place eh

Answer 3

or in this case it seems like we only need to compare the x parts to match an option

Answer 4

So, it would be (4.25, 8.25 )

Answer 5

Hope this helped! Have a great day! @jaja420
