A. given directed line segment mn with m(-6,-2) and n(3,1), find point p that partitions the segment into a ratio of 1: 2. explain your reasoning. b. given directed line segment jk with j(-1,6) and k(3,-2), find point l that partitions the segment into a ratio of 3: 1. explain your reasoning.

1. By definition, a given point that divides a segment into a ratio a:b, as the following x-coordinate:

And the y-coordinate:

2. Kepping this on mind, you have:

A) x-coordinate:

y-coordinate:

The answer is:

B) The x-coordinate is:

The y-coordinate is:

The answer is:

answer:     true
