Answer:
( 19/3 , 2 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given in the question,
point D(7,1)
x1 = 7
y1 = 1
point F(5,4)
x2 = 5
y2 = 4
Location of point E which is 1/3 of the way from D to F
which means ratio of point E from D to F is 1 : 2
1 : 2
xk = [tex]x1 + \frac{a}{a+b}(x2-x1)[/tex]
yk = [tex]y1 + \frac{a}{a+b}(y2-y1)[/tex]
Plug values in the equation
xk = 7 + (1)/(1+2) (5-7)
xk = 19/3
yk = 1 + (1)/(1+2)(4-1)
yk = 2
