Answer» Answer: 1,3 Step-by-step explanation: we know that ,the coordinates of the point DIVIDING the line segment joining the points (X1 ,Y1 )and( X2 ,y2 )in the ratio m:n is GIVEN by m1x2+m2x1/m1m21, m1y2+m2y1/m1+m2 Given (X1+y1)= -1,7 ; (X2,y2)=4,-3 (m1,m2)=2:3 coordinates coordinates of point of intersection of line segment is (2)(4)+(3)(-1)/2+3 , (2)(-3)+(3)(7)/2+3 =[5/5,15/5] =1,3 |
