Find the point y on ab such that the ratio of ay to yb is 1: 2?

y = (-1,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

If a point y divides a line A B in the ratio a:b, the formula to find the coordinates of the point y is:

and

We know Point A is (-3,4) and Point B is (3,-5). And the ratio is a:b or 1:2, so we can say:

= -3

= 3

= 4

= -5

a = 1

b = 2

Plugging these into the formula, we get:

and

So the point y is (-1,1)

7 ft 6 in means 7 1/2, because 6 in is 1/2 of a foot. 7 ft 8 in means 7 2/3 because 8 in is 2/3 of a foot. 23/3 = 7 2/3. 15/2 = 7 1/2.

23/3   *   15/2   = 57 1/2
