Question

Find the point that is one-fourth of the way (2,4) to (10,8)

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer: (3, 9)

Step-by-step explanation:

One fourth of the way, remaining distance is three fourth.

$= (\frac{x _{1} + x_{2} }{4} ,\: \frac{3(y_{1} + y_{2})}{4} )$

substitute:

$= ( \frac{2 + 10}{4} , \: 3(\frac{4 + 8}{4} )) \\ \\ = ( \frac{12}{4} , \: \frac{36}{4} ) \\ \\ = (3, \: 9)$
