The null hypothesis states that there is no relationship between the two variables being studied (one variable does not affect the other). It states results are due to chance and are not significant in terms of supporting the idea being investigated.

Line segment AB has endpoints A(1, 2) and B(5, 3). Find the coordinates of the point that divides the line segment directed from

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

The coordinates of the point that divides the line segment directed from A to B in the ratio of 1:3 is P ( 2 , 2.25 ).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Let Point P ( x , y ) divides Segment Am in the ratio 1 : 3 = m : n (say)

point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( 1 , 2)

point B( x₂ , y₂) ≡ (5 , 3)

To Find:

point P( x , y) ≡ ?

Solution:

IF a Point P divides Segment AB internally in the ratio m : n, then the Coordinates of Point P is given by Section Formula as

$x=\frac{(mx_{2} +nx_{1}) }{(m+n)}\\ \\and\\\\y=\frac{(my_{2} +ny_{1}) }{(m+n)}\\\\$

Substituting the values we get

$x=\frac{(1\times 5 +3\times 1) }{(1+3)}\\ \\and\\\\y=\frac{(1\times 3 +3\times 2) }{(1+3)}\\\\\therefore x = \frac{8}{4}=2 \\\\and\\\therefore y = \frac{9}{4}=2.25 \\\\\\\therefore P(x,y) = (2 , 2.25)$
