Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the boxes and whiskers of a box plot tells us more about the spread the data being represented is and as well as the shape of the spread.
Invariably, if the length of the left box and left whiskers is of the same length as the right box and right whiskers, this implies that the distribution of the data point is close to being symmetric, or approximately symmetrical.
Here is the formula for finding a partitioning point:
x=x1+k(x2-x1), y=y1+k(y2-y1)
k is the ratio of the segment from the beginning point to the partitioning : the whole segment. In this case, k=AP:AB=5/16
so x=1+(5/16)*(-2-1)=1/16
y=6+(5/16)(-3-6)=51/16
so the answer is (-1/16, 51/16)
Please double check my calculation by yourself.
refer to this website for the formula and how to find k:
"This ratio is called k, and is determined by writing the numerator over the sum of the numerator and the denominator of the original ratio."
