What are the coordinates of the point on the directed line segment from (1, -5) to (10, 1) that partitions the segment into a ratio of 1 to 5?

I’m not sure what it is i sorry : ((

First step is to get rid of the square root. remember that a square root is the same as raising to the (1/2) power. see below: multiply exponents per exponent rules to get: remember you subtract exponents from the denominator and add exponents in the numerator so: simplify further: so a is the correct choice. if you don't understand this google exponent rules and it will you understand. look at the image results.
