Answer:

The coordinates of M are (2,-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the point that divides the line segment joining

A(x_1,y_1) to B(x_2,y_2) in the ratio m:n is given by:

(\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},\frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n})

If A is at (-4,-2) and B is at (4. -10) and the ratio is 3:1.

Then

(\frac{3(4)+1(-4)}{3+1},\frac{3(-10)+1(-2)}{3+1})

(\frac{8}{4},\frac{-32}{4})

The coordinates of M are (2,-8)

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

Like Terms: Terms that have identical variable parts (same variable(s) and same exponent(s)). When simplifying using addition and subtraction, you combine “like terms” by keeping the "like term" and adding or subtracting the numerical coefficients.
