Given XZ with X(-4,3) and Z(6.-2), find the coordinates of Y if Y divides XZ one-fifth
of the way from X to Z.

Endpoints of the segment XZ are and .

If a point Y(h, k) divides it in the ratio of m : n.

Then the coordinates of the point Y will be,

If the endpoints are and and  point divides the this segment in the ratio of .

(h, k) =

        =

        =

Lean more,

Y = (-2,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio would be 1:5

so

1/5(6 - -4) + -4 , 1/5(-2 -3) +3

step-by-step explanation:

if you meant, "on the way from (3, 2) to (3, 14):

x does not change; y increases by 12.
