Given directed line segment JL below, find the coordinates of K such that the ratio of JK to JL is 7:8. Plot point K.

The coordinate of JK is (-1.7, -0.3)

The coordinate of the points that divides the line segment in the given ratio is calculated as:

where;

a:b = 7:8

From the image;

(x₁, y₁) = (-6, 5) and,

(x₂, y₂) = (2, -5)

Substitute the given points in the equation above to calculate the coordinates of JK.

Thus, the coordinate of JK = (-1.7, -0.3)
