x coordinate can be written by using the formula, x= x1 + 2/5(x2 - x1)
step-by-step explanation:
formula
x = x1 + p/w(x2 - x1)
let the line segment ab with a(x1,y1) and b(x2,y2)
a point(x,y) divide ab in the ratio, 2: 3 the x coordinate can be written as
x = x1 + p/w(x2 - x1)
here p=2 and w = 2+3
therefore,
x coordinate can be written by using the formula, x= x1 + 2/5(x2 - x1)
similarly y coordinate y = y1 + 2/5(y2 - y1)
