The x - and y - coordinates of point P are ( - 1 , 2 )
The standard form of the linear equation is,
Where is the gradient of the line.
Given-
P is 2/3 the length of the line segment from A to B. Suppose is two, then
This gradient of the line can be calculated with the following formula-
Here, () and () are two arbitrary points.
In the given graph, at point A(9,-8),
At point B (-6,7),
Use the formula has given in the problem which is,
Put the values,
For y use the formula given in the problem which is
Hence, the x - and y - coordinates of point P are ( - 1 , 2 )
