Answer:
k=6
Step-by-step explanation:
Line partition formula
1/b(x2-x1)+x1, 1/b(y2-y1)+y1
Where b is the number partitions.
We know the x values so Subsitue 17 for x2 and 2 for x1. and we know this value must equal 7.
1/b(17-2)+2=7
1/b(15)=5
1/b=1/3
b=3
so the partition is 1/3
So let find the y coordinate
So our y coordinate is 6.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Saving the long, drawn out derivation of the formulas to find the x and y coordinates of the directed point, suffice it to say that it is:
x coordinate: and
y coordinate:
where x1, x2, y1, and y2 are the coordinates from the given points and a and b are the numbers in the ratio, namely a = 3 and b = 4. Filling in accordingly:
the x coordinate of the directed point is
which simplifies down to -6, and
the y coordinate of the directed point is
which simplifies down to -1.
The coordinate of the point is (-6, -1). Write that down so you don't forget it.
