Point p partitions the directed segment from a to b into a 1: 3 ratio. q partitions the directed segment from b to a into a 1: 3 ratio. are p and q the same point? why or why not? a)yes, they both partition the segment into a 1: 3 ratio. b)yes, they are both the distance from one endpoint to the other. c)no, p is the distance from a to b, and q is the distance from b to a. d)no, q is closer to a and p is closer to b.

c)No, P is the distance from A to B, and Q is the distance from B to A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Point P partitions the directed segment from A to B into a 1:3 ratio.

Ratio is 1:3

So AP is 1  and PB is 3

Q partitions the directed segment from B to A into a 1:3 ratio.

Ratio is 1:3

So BQ is 1  and QA is 3.

That is AQ= 3  and BQ= 1

The ratio of Q and P varies

AP =1  and AQ=3

So P  and Q  are not at the same point.

Because P is the distance from A  to B  and Q is the distance from B to A

step-by-step explanation:

7 ft 6 in means 7 1/2, because 6 in is 1/2 of a foot. 7 ft 8 in means 7 2/3 because 8 in is 2/3 of a foot. 23/3 = 7 2/3. 15/2 = 7 1/2.

23/3   *   15/2   = 57 1/2
