Answer 1

Answer:

(-3/2, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

(-3,8) (6,-4)

As we move along the line segment with endpoints (-3,8) and (6,-4) from  (-3,8) to (6,-4) x increases by 9 units (from -3 to 6) and y decreases by -12 units (from 8 to -4).

for ratio of 1:5

Since 1+5=6, the point we are looking for is 1/6 of the way from (-3,8) to (6,-4).  

So, the desired point is

(-3 + (1/6)(9), 8 - (1/6)(12) )

= (-3 + 3/2 , 8 - 2)

= ( (-6 + 3)/2, 6)

= (-3/2, 6)
