Question

Hey everyone!!!!!!!!!!!

Find the coordinates of the point P which divides the join of A(-2, 5) and B(3, -5) in the ratio 2:3.....









Pls solve as soon as possible

Answer 1

P(0, 1)

Explanation:

Using the section formula

`x_(P)` =
`((3(-2))+(2(3)))/(2+3)` =
`(-6+6)/(5)` = 0

`y_(P)` =
`((3(5))+(2(-5)))/(2+3)` =
`(15-10)/(5)` = 1

Hence P(0, 1)
