Point R divides PG in the ratio 1:3. If the x-coordinate of R is -1 and the x-coordinate of P is -3, what is the x-coordinate of Q

option C . 5

Step-by-step explanation:

For two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) divided by a point p in ratio m:n then coordinates of that point is given by

p    :  (nx1+mx2)/(m+n),  (ny1+my2)/(m+n),  

Given

x coordinate of P (-3)

x  coordinate of Q (a) since we have to find it , let it be a

x coordinate of R(-1)\

ratio = 1:3

Using the above formula to find the point of division

we can get value of x coordinate for point Q

x  coordinate of R = 3*-3 + 1*a/(1+3)

-1 = (-9 + a)/4

=> -4 = -9 +a

=>a = -4+9 = 5

Thus, x  coordinate of Q is 5

answer: procent 54 wynosi 33,33%

you can first factor out the n to get n(1+5). we know that 1+5 is 6, so we just have 6n.
