Point A is at negative 4 and point cap b is at 6 Which describes one way to find the point that divides line segment A B into a ratio of 3 to 2 ratio? Open image in full-screen view
Answer
A
For a ratio of ratio of 3 to 2 , divide line segment A B into 3 equal parts. Each equal part is 3 units, so the point that divides line segment A B into a ratio of 3 to 2 ratio is 0 .
B
For a ratio of ratio of 3 to 2 , divide line segment A B into 5 equal parts. Each equal part is 2 units, so the point that divides line segment A B into a ratio of 3 to 2 ratio is 2 .
C
For a ratio of ratio of 3 to 2 , divide line segment A B into 3 equal parts. Each equal part is 3 units, so the point that divides line segment A B into a ratio of 3 to 2 ratio is 3 .
D
For a ratio of ratio of 3 to 2 , divide line segment A B into 5 equal parts. Each equal part is 2 units, so the point that divides line segment A B into a ratio of 3 to 2 ratio is 1 .
