Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's make this simple. Since we are given a ratio, that is the method we will use (as opposed to being told that the coordinate of the point that partitions the directed segment is one-third of the way from the first point to the second point. That's a different method). There is a formula for each of the coordinates we are looking for and they are:
and
where
a = 4 (from the ratio),
b = 3 (from the ratio),
x1 = 1, y1 = -6,
x2 = 8, y2 = 8 (those are from the endpoints of the directed segment). Filling in to find x first:
which simplifies down to
and then y:
which simplifies down to
so the coorinates are (5, 2).
