Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Line segment divided into 5:3 ratio, so one segment is ⅝ of AB and one segment is ⅜ of AB.
Compare the coordinates of A and B.
change in x-coordinates = 10-2 = 8
change in y-coordinates = 2-(-6) = 8
⅝ of 8 = 5, so x-coordinate of C = (x-coordinate of A) + 5 = 7, and y-coordinate of C = (y-coordinate of A) + 5 = 1
