On a coordinate plane, a line is drawn from point a to point b. point a is at (2, negative 3) and point b is at (negative 4, 9). what are the x- and y- coordinates of point e, which partitions the directed line segment from a to b into a ratio of 1: 2? x = (startfraction m over m + n endfraction) (x 2 minus x 1) + x 1 y = (startfraction m over m + n endfraction) (y 2 minus y 1) + y 1 (0, 1) (–1, 3) (–2, 5) (1, 0)

(0,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

If and   are two point son a coordinate plane and (x,y) dividing it in a ratio of m: n.

Then , the coordinates of (x,y) is given by :-

Given : On a coordinate plane, a line is drawn from point A to point B. Point A is at (2, - 3) and point B is at (- 4, 9).

Then , the x- and y- coordinates of point E, which partitions the directed line segment from A to B into a ratio of 1:2 :

Hence, the x- and y- coordinates of point E = (0,1)

multiplication is multiplication.   it might feel harder depending on what level of math you are in, but generally it will be the same old stuff, while implementing some new concepts and methods of solving work.
