14. given the points a(-3,-4) and b(5,0), find the coordinates of the point p on directed line
segment ab that partitions ab in the ratio 2 to 3.

First step is to get rid of the square root. remember that a square root is the same as raising to the (1/2) power. see below: multiply exponents per exponent rules to get: remember you subtract exponents from the denominator and add exponents in the numerator so: simplify further: so a is the correct choice. if you don't understand this google exponent rules and it will you understand. look at the image results.
