The coordinate of the partition c on the line segment is (1.2, -4.7)
<h3>How to determine the coordinates of the partition?</h3>
The coordinates are given as:
A = (7,-2)
B = (-8,-9)
m:n = 5:8
The coordinate of the partition is calculated using:
So, we have:
Evaluate the sum and products
Evaluate the product
(x,y) = (1.2, -4.7)
Hence, the coordinate of the partition on the line segment is (1.2, -4.7)

you can't really see the question it's too blurry
x + y = 53
x -y = 9 Adding both equations
2x = 62
x = 31 y = 22
