Answer:

b) 4:3

Step-by-step explanation:

The point P is 4/7 of the distance from point M to point N. This means that moving from M to N, the total distance is divided into 7 equal parts and the point P lies after the 4 parts starting from M.

So, out of 7, 4 parts are present between M and P. and the remaining 3 parts are present between P and N. In other words we can say,when we move from M towards N, the line segment MP covers 4 out of 7 parts and the line segment PN covers the 3 parts.

So, we can conclude here that the point P partitions the directed line segment from M to N into a 4:3

Answer:

B. 4:3 is your answer
