4 If point p q is of the way from A to B what are the values

4. If point (p, q) is of the way from A to B, what are the values of p and q? -A A(-3,

Solution

Answer to the question is as follows:

So, the point (p,q) divides AB into 1:2

So,
A = (-3,-2)
B = (12,4)

Hence, the (p,q) is (1*12 + 2*-3)/(1+2) , (1*4+ 2*-2)/(1+2)
(p,q) = (2,0)

So, cordinates of p,q are (2,0)
