Find the ratio in which X-axis divides the line joining 2,-3 and 5,6 and also the co-ordinates of the point. 

let the  ratio be k:1
coordinaates of A(2,-3) &B(5,6)
points on x axis are P(x,0)
0 = 6k-3
      k+1
0 = 6k-3
3 = 6k
1 = k
2
k:1 = 1:1
         2
m:n = 1:2

  • 3
1:2 if 2,-3 is the first point. The co-ordinates of the point are (3,0).
