Answer:

  P = (5, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given division, ...

  P = (2B +3A)/5

  P = (2(8, 14) +3(3, -1))/5 = (16+9, 28-3)/5 = (25, 25)/5

  P = (5, 5)

_____

For some division ratio of AP : PB = p : q, we have ...

  (P -A)/(B -P) = p/q

  q(P -A) = p(B -P)

  P(p+q) = pB +qA . . . . rearranging

  P = (pB +qA)/(p+q) . . . . . the formula we used above
