Question

Point D is 1/n of the way from C(−2.5, 1.25) to E(5, 15). What are the coordinates of D if n = 5?

Answer 1

The coordinate of point D will be ( -0.5, 0.25 ).

What is coordinate geometry?

A coordinate plane is a 2D plane that is formed by the intersection of two perpendicular lines known as the x-axis and y-axis. A coordinate system in geometry is a method for determining the positions of the points by using one or more numbers or coordinates.

Given that point, D is 1/n of the way from C(−2.5, 1.25) to E(5, 15), and the value of n = 5.

The coordinates of point D will be:-

D = ( 1 / n ) C

D = ( 1 / n ) ( -2.5 , 1.25 )

D = ( 1 / 5 ) ( -2.5 , 1.25 )

D = ( -0.5 , 0.25 )

Therefore, the coordinate of point D will be ( -0.5, 0.25 ).
