What is the value of k used to find the coordinates of a point that partitions a segment into a ratio of 5: 3. explain.

The value of k is 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of k is found by dividing the numerator of the original ratio, 5, by the sum of the numerator and denominator of the ratio

When finding a point, P, to partition a line segment AB into the ratio a/b, we find a ratio c = a / (a + b)

According to this formula we find the value of k.

k = a/(a+b)

where a = 5

b = 3

Now plug the values in the formula:

k = 5/(5+3)

k = 5/8
