In the xy -coordinate plane, the coordinates of point s are (-2,-6), and coordinates of point T are (18,9). Point Q lies on line

segment ST so that the ratio of the distance from point S to point Q to the distance from point g to point T is 2 to 3. What are the coordinates of point Q?

Answer:

(6,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the points dividing the line segment in ratio m:n can be calculated as:

(\frac{mx_{2}+nx_{1}}{m+n} ,\frac{my_{2}+ny_{1}}{m+n} )

Here x1, y1 are the coordinates of first point S (-2, -6) and x2, y2 are the coordinates of second point T(18, 9).

In this case m will be 2 and n will be 3 as the ratio is 2:3

Using all these values we can find the coordinates of point Q

( \frac{2(18)+3(-2)}{2+3},\frac{2(9)+3(-6)}{2+3} )\\\\ = (\frac{30}{5} ,\frac{0}{5} )\\\\ =(6,0)

Thus, the coordinates of point Q which divides the line segment ST in ratio of 2:3 are (6,0)

Answer:

Slope:  5

Y-intercept:  0

Equation:  y=5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets look for an equation of the format y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).

Slope is defined as the "Rise/Run" of the line.  The change in y(the rise) for a change in x(the run).  This can be calculated by taking any two of the given data points.  I'll pick (1,5) and (5,25):

Rise = (25 - 5) = 20

Run = (5 - 1) = 4

The Rise/Run, or slope, m, is (20/4) or 5.

<u>The equation becomes y = 5x + b.</u>

To find b, the y-intercept, enter <u>any</u> of the points into the equation and solve for b:

y = 5x + b

y = 5x + b   for (4,20)

20 = 5*(4) + b

b = 0

The line goes through the origin at x = 0 (0,0).

The equation is y = 5x + 0 or just y = 5x.

Slope:  5

Y-intercept:  0

Equation:  y=5x
