Points b, o, y are collinear on by, and bo: oy=5/8. b is located at (4,2), o is located at (7, -3) and y is located at (x, y). determine the values x and y

x =

y = -11

Explanation:

Given that a line segment BY. O is the point lies between B & Y.

Ratio is BO:OY = 5:8

Coordinate of point B = (4,2)

Coordinate of point O = (7,-3)

We will find the coordinate of Y (x,y)

Here we use the section formula.

Internal section formula is :

(7,-3) =

(7,-3) =

Now

7  =  

5x+32 = 91

x =

and

5y + 16 = -39

y = -11

That's the final answer.

a) false; the points do not have to be in a straight line.

step-by-step explanation:

the points could be in the shape of a triangle

b is incorrect

c is incorrect because it is saying the immediately don't form one when they are capable of doing so

d is incorrect

b
