The coordinates of x are (1.6, 1.2).
Solution:
Given points of the line segment are A(0, 0) and B(4, 3)
X be the point divided the line segment AB in the distance .
i.e., in the ratio of 2 : 3.
Section formula:
Here, and m = 2, n = 3
Substitute these in the section formula,
<em>X(x, y)</em> = (1.6, 1.2)
The coordinates of x are (1.6, 1.2).
