Point a is located at (4, 8) and point b is located at (14, 10) . what point partitions the directed line segment ab⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ into a 1: 3 ratio? (612, 812) (9, 9) (1112, 912) (6, 6)

The 1:3 ratio means that the distance from A to the point is 1/4 of the distance from A to B.

The difference of y-coordinates is 10-8 = 2. 1/4 of that is 2·1/4 = 1/2, so the point of interest will have y-coordinate 8 + 1/2 = 8 1/2. This apparently corresponds to the first selection:

... (6 1/2, 8 1/2)

step-by-step explanation:

. your answer will contain x - and y -terms. (1 point) x ( ¿¿ 2 − 7 ) 2 +( y 2 − 9 ) 2 √ ¿ 12. what is the distance from the directrix (the crocodile river) to the point ( x , y )? write this equation. your answer will contain a y -term.
