On a number line, the directed line segment from Q to S has endpoints Q at –14 and S at 2. Point R partitions the directed line segment from Q to S in a 3:5 ratio. Which expression correctly uses the formula to find the location of point R?

To get the coordinate of point R partitioned by the ratio 3:5, the required formula will be given as [tex]M(x, y) = (\frac{ax_1+bx_2}{a+b} , \frac{ay_1+by_2}{a+b} )\\[/tex]M(x, y) = (ax1+bx2/a+b, ay1+by2/a+b)

The midpoint rule

  • From the given statement, we have the following information
  • Point Q = (-14, 0)
  • Point S = (2, 0)

R = (x, y)

To get the coordinate of point R partitioned by the ratio 3:5, the required formula will be given as M(x, y) = (ax1+bx2/a+b, ay1+by2/a+b)
