Question 1080622
point J is at -10
point K is at 23


the distance between them is 33 units.


33/3 = 11


2 times 11 = 22


add 22 to -10 and you get 12.


the point is 12.


we'll call that point L


you get the line segment JK is composed of 2 line segment JL and LK


point J is at -10
point L is at 12
point K is at 23


the length of line segment JL is 22
the length of line segment LK is 11


the ratio of the length of line segment JL to the line segment LK is 22/11 = 2/1 which is the same as 2:1.
