Answer:
The coordinates of Q are (1.5,3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we simply want to divide the line segment in the given ratio
We can use the internal division formula here;
The coordinates of Q will be;
(x,y) = (nx1 + mx2)/(n + m) , (ny1 + my2)/(n + m)
m = 5, n = 3
(x,y) = (3(-1) + 5(3))/(5 + 3) , (3(-2) + 5(6)/(5 + 3))
(x,y) = (-3 + 15)/8 , (-6 + 30)/8
(x,y) = 12/8, 24/8
(x,y) = (1.5,3)
