The segment joining (2,-4) and (9,5) is divided into 2 segment one of which 5times as long as the other. Find the point of division.
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "Divide the segment into 6 parts, 1 for the short piece one for the long.
\n" ); document.write( "Do the x and y separately.
\n" ); document.write( "For x:
\n" ); document.write( "(9-2)/2 = 7/2
\n" ); document.write( "Divide by 6 --> 7/12
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "For y:
\n" ); document.write( "(5+4)/2 = 9/2
\n" ); document.write( "Divide by 6 --> 3/4
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "If the point of division is closer to (2,-4), add the x & y to (2,-4)
\n" ); document.write( "--> (31/12,-13/4)
\n" ); document.write( "===================
\n" ); document.write( "If the point of division is closer to (9,5), subtract the x & y to (2,-4)
\n" ); document.write( "--> (101/12,17/4)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
