Answer:
(26/9 , -7/9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Here,
let the points be
X(-1,7) = (x1, y1)
Y(4,-3) = (x2,y2)
and let the ratio be...
m:n = 7:2
and.. let the point that divides the line be
P(x,y)
now using the section formula for internal division..
P(x,y) = ( m.x2 + nx.1 / m+ n , my2+ny2/m+n )
= ( 7.4+2.-1 / 7+2 , 7.-3 + 2.7/7+2 )
= ( 26/9 , -7/9 )
