Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given: P is Three-fifths the length of the line segment from K to J
To find: x- and y-coordinates of point P on the directed line segment from K to J
Solution:
Section formula:
Let point K and J be
such that the point
divides KJ in ratio 
Then coordinates of point P are given by 
Take 
So,
coordinates of point P = 
Answer:
x = - 
Step-by-step explanation:
(x - 3) - 5 =
(x - 1)
Multiply through by 8 to clear the fractions
6(x - 3) - 40 = x - 1 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side
6x - 18 - 40 = x - 1
6x - 58 = x - 1 ( subtract x from both sides )
5x - 58 = - 1 ( add 58 to both sides )
5x = - 57 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = -
