A point T on a segment with endpoints D (1, 4) and F (7, 1) partitions the segment in a 3:1 ratio. Find T. You must show all work to receive credit.

The change in x is from   1 to 7       6 units

The change in y is from 4 to  1        -3 units

A RATIO of 3:1 means the line is divided into FOUR segments (3+1)

  we want three of those segments from endpoint D    (an alternative would be three segments from fpoint F...I assumed from point D)

6 units x 3/4     added to the x value of 1 = x=5.5

-3 units x 3/4    added to the y value of 4 = y = 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

correct me if i am wrong

x = ± 6i

step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = -36

take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(-36)

we know sqrt(ab) = sqrt(a) sqrt(b)

x = ±sqrt(36) sqrt(-1)

we know that sqrt (-1) = i

x = ± 6i
