given line segment jl with j8 8 and l16 2 find the coordinates of K if K divides line segment JL twothirds of the way from J to L class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

  • (-8, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • Line segment JL with J(8, -8) and L(-16, -2)

To find

  • Coordinates of K if K divides JL two-thirds from J

Solution

  • JK = 2/3JL

Coordinates of K

  • x = 8 + 2/3(-16 - 8) = 8 + 2/3(-24) = 8 - 16 = - 8
  • y = -8 + 2/3(-2 - (-8)) = -8 + 2/3(6) = -8 + 4 = - 4
  • K = (-8, -4)
