3.5 Partitioning Directed Line Segement

Find the point that is 2/5 of the distance from C to D.

• (-1, 2)
• (0, 0)

Given the points A(-1,2) and B(7,14), find the coordinates of the Point P on the directed line segment AB that partitions AB in the ratio 1:3.

The coordinates of the point P are:

• (1,5)

• (0,4)

• (3, 1)

• (-1, 1)

6) The ratio is 3:1. How many total parts are there?

Given the points A(-2 4) and B(7, -2), find the coordinates of the point P on directed line segment AB in the ratio 1:2.

The coordinates for point P are:

• (0, 1)

• (0, -1)

• (1,2)

• (2,1)

Given line AB with A(8, -4) and B(-6, -11), if P partitions AB such that the ratio of AP to AB is 2:7, find the coordinates of P.

Oops!! Answer comes out as a decimal......

TYPE THE ANSWER (4,-6)

Given that line WY with W(3,7) and Y(13,-8), if point X partitions WY such that the ratio of WX to XY is 3:2 find the coordinates of X only.

Given the the points R(6,-2) and T(-9,-7), find the y- coordinates of point S on line RT such that RS to ST is 3:2.

The y-coordinate is: ?
