Find the ratio in which point c partitions segment bd. coordinate plane with segment bd at b 0 comma 1 and d 4 comma 1; point c is on segment bd and 3 comma 1 one third three over one one fourth two fourths

The ratio is:

               three over one i.e.  3:1

We know that if a point M divides the line segment A(a,b)B(c,d) in the ration m:n.

Then the coordinates of point M(x,y) is given by:

and

Here also,

Point C partitions segment BD.

Let the ratio be: m:n

B is located at (0,1).

D is located at (4,1).

and C is located at (3,1)

i.e.

This means that:

Hence, the ratio is:

          3:1 i.e. three over one.

  3/1

Step-by-step explanation:

For ...

The ratio of segments BD/CD is (3-0)/(4-3) = 3/1.

Comment on the problem

The particulars of the desired ratio are not specified. Often these problems use (firs segment) : (second segment) as the description of the partitioning. The answer will depend on the ratio of interest. (It will not be 2/4.)

divide by 5

step-by-step explanation:

60/5 = 12

arrange the equations with like terms in columns.
