A is at 1, and B is at 7. Find the point, T, so that T partitions A to B in a 2:1 ratio. A is at 6 and B is at 4. Find the point, T, so that T is A to B in a 2:3 ratio.
A is at 8 and B is at 2. Find the point, T, so that T is A to B in a 1:4 ratio.
For line segment AB with endpoints A (x1, y 1 ) and B(x2, y 2 ), to find the ratio of m:n, or lies k of the way from A to B. Find the point Q that partitions BA in a ratio of 1:3. Where B is (1, 5) and A is (5, 3).
