Line segment MN is shown below. If point P(x, y) partitions the line segment
into the ratio MP:PN = 1:2 then determine the values of x and y.
Line segment:
Point M: (-6,2).
Point N: (9. – 4)

P (-1 , 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

M (-6 , 2)      N (9 , -4)     P (x , y)

horizontal distance of M and N = 9 - (-6) = 15

vertical distance of M and N = 2 - (-4) = 6

1/3 from x coordinate of M (-6): -6 + 15/3 = -1    This is x coordinate of point P

1/3 from y coordinate of M (2): 2 - 6/3 = 0    This is y coordinate of point P

P (x , y)  i.e P (-1 , 0)

check: distance of MP = √(-1 - (-6))² + (0 - 2)² = √29 = 5.385

distance of PN = √(-1 - 9)² + (0 - (-4))² = √116 = 10.77

MP / PN = 5.385 / 10.77 = 0.5 = 1/2
